Br. 1900 had two sisters named Ila Belle and Bessie. I have found some information but I have my reservations about them being accurate on my part. He married Thelma F. Sanford and they had two children Clarence Rudolph ( my father) and Lamar, Lamar was killed ,when he was hit by a truck, at the age of 3 in Columbus Ga abt. 1933. My Grandparents divorced in the 30's and my Father lived in Columbus Ga. with Ila Belle, she was married to Arthur Nolan who owned a furniture store, Nolan and Son, in Columbus. In the 1930 US Census they are listed as follows: Homer Wilkinson- 29 - not Wilkerson as it should be. Thelma Wilkinson- 22 Rudolph Wilkinson- 6 years Lamar Wilkinson- 1 month Edward Sanford- Brother in Law is also listed in the houshold The Nolans are listed as follows: Arthur Nolan Ila Nolan Nila Nolan Preston Nolan I know that Uncle Preston married Mary Alice Cooper and had 4 children twin daughters Patricia and Jeanette, daughter Jean and son Randy. All the families lived on the same block along with the Nolan and Son Furniture store My Father died in 83' and Granddaddy died in the 73' and is buried at Pine Hill Cemetary in Columbus, my Grandmother remarried, lived in California and died in 62' so as you see I have no living source of information.

Huling, sister of the bride, Mr. J.F. Taylor was married to Miss Annie Bivins Walker. The ceremony was performed in a very impressive manner by the Rev. Mr. Brown of Waverly Hall. At 8:30 o’clock in the morning a company of relatives of the contracting parties and a few invited friends assembled to witness the marriage. At the appointed hour the bride, leaning on the arm of the groom, entered the room, which was full of expectant guests. The bride was elegantly costumed as befitting the occasion. The groom, attired in the regulation suit, looked the noble gentleman he is. Mr. Taylor is a resident of Columbus, and a fine businessman, and his many gentlemanly traits have won many friends in a business and social way. Miss Walker was reared in Talbot County, and is a charming and accomplished young woman, and on account of her sweet and womanly disposition was very popular. Their many friends wish them every happiness through life. Immediately after the marriage they left for Birmingham and other points to visit relatives, after which they will return to Columbus, where they will be at home to their friends on East Highlands. *Note – the abbreviation ult. stands for Ultimate meaning the previous month.

Louis F. Girrard The death of this estimable gentleman deprives Columbus of a distinguished citizen. His going away is a distinctive shock to thousands in this section of the state. To his chosen profession – the law – he gave his chief study, and in it he excelled. The short time devoted to serving the state in the general assembly stamped him as one of Georgia’s gifted sons and left assurance, had his tastes been in that direction, that his ability was equal to any position in the gift of the people. With mournful pleasure we record ourselves among the number of the personally bereaved and transmit to the stricken home our sincere sympathy.
