Need help with my "brick wall ancestor" William D. Dunn. William was born April 11, 1820. Census records list him as being born in NC (some say GA). William married Melinda Walton, daughter of Thomas Walton and Catherine Williamson, in Meriwether Co. GA on Jan 21, 1849. They have three sons born in Meriwether Co. GA: James T., William Nathan, and David Franklin. The next three sons are born in Talllapoosa Co., AL. They are Columbus M., John W. and Leonidus (Lee) Mitchell. William dies of disease during the Civil War. Melinda later moves to Jackson Co., AL for a short period of time. She then moves to Etowah Co., AL and lives there until her death in 1899. If you have any info on William's parents or siblings please contact me at gloria@cybrtyme.com.
