A big thank you to Mary Winn the information on William Bradford Tipton and Rebecca Ann Williams Tipton. I did not have any of this information. Also, I had Charlotte Schrimshers name but did not know who she married. Mary, the information was a tremendous help! Jack Fryar, Thanks for all the information you've posted also. I have heard that there were two William Williams families in Madison County. A Williams researcher told me. Off the top of my head I do not have any information on William Williams in Franklin County, TN. However, I have lots of information not in the computer yet. I'll look through some of it and if I find anything, I'll let you know. Gem, I do not know enough about the Tiptons to know if mine is descended from Shadrack or Benjamin. Peggy
