I just learned that Sarah Dorsey was indeed the mother of James. W. (my 3rd gr.grandfather), William C., Joseph O., & Margaret Ann who married John Bottoms of Fayette County. I strongly suspect her husband was Thomas B. who shows up on land records as living on the same land as Sarah before her death. (Am I making sense?) Sarah is in the 1870 census, living with her widowed daughter Margaret.

10 April 2010 Good morning Lynn. Yes they are. Wiley Thomas Childers was a brother to my great granddaddy - William J. Childers. I had most of the names you gave - however there were a few names I did not have, primarly with the Brown Families. One correction - Wiley was born in Pike County (as well as his seven known siblings). He was the first child born to James Jackson and Elisabeth A (Bragg) Childers. Wiley was named after both his grandfathers - Wiley Childers and Thomas Bragg.. Wiley Thomas and Nancy Ann Clemetine (Tate) are buried in the Milner Baptist Church Cemetery. Thank you for the information. I will incorporate it into our family lineage. Now if I could only get back upstream past Wiley and Henry Childers - brothers who were on the 1830 Pike County Census. I have jumped over the 'wall' via DNA, however It would be nice to have a paper trail. Have a good day. Larry Childers The Son. The Son. Whoever takes the Son gets everything. And the best is yet to come. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lynn Cunningham" <cunningham53@bellsouth.net> To: <gapike@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, April 10, 2010 10:20 PM Subject: Re: [GAPIKE] Roll Call > Larry, > > Are any of these Childers part of your family? > > Lynn > > > Descendants of Wiley Thomas Childers > > 1 Wiley Thomas Childers b: 12 April 1842 in Monroe County, Georgia d: 31 > January 1921 in Lamar County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index 1919-1998) > > . +Nancy Ann Clemetine Tate b: 24 February 1845 in Monroe County, Georgia > d: > 19 December 1932 in Lamar County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index > 1919-1998) > > ...... 2 Lizzie Childers b: July 1871 in Georgia > > ...... 2 Claude May Childers b: 28 November 1875 in Pike County, Georgia > d: > 03 September 1954 in Fulton County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index > 1919-1998) > > .......... +Luke Melville Brown m: 25 February 1902 in Pike County, > Georgia > b: 11 July 1868 in Pike County, Georgia d: 22 September 1937 in Pike > County > Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index 1919-1998) > > .............. 3 Cecil Rhodes Brown b: 28 February 1903 in Pike County, > Georgia d: 15 May 1915 in Pike County Georgia > .............. 3 Mildred Clementine Brown b: 01 January 1906 in Pike > County, > Georgia > .............. 3 Winnifred Catherine Brown b: 12 April 1909 in Pike > County, > Georgia > .............. 3 Wiley Roger Brown b: 04 September 1914 in Pike County, > Georgia d: 06 January 1966 in DeKalb County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death > Index 1919-1998) > .............. 3 Luke Melville Brown, Jr. b: 18 December 1917 in Pike > County, Georgia > .............. 3 Claudia Luke Brown b: 28 June 1919 in Pike County, > Georgia > .................. +Joseph Edward Smith m: 07 November 1945 in Fulton > County, Georgia b: 08 October 1911 in Terrell County, Georgia > .............. 3 Susan Juda Brown b: 04 April 1921 in Pike County, Georgia > .................. +/?/ Parham > > ...... 2 Kate Childers b: 22 January 1879 in Georgia d: 18 April 1952 in > DeKalb County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index 1919-1998) > .......... +Benjamin Tarver Woodall m: 02 December 1908 in Pike County, > Georgia (src: Marriage Record - Pike County, Georgia) b: 15 June 1880 in > Tennessee d: 17 April 1974 in Fulton County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death > Index 1919-1998) > > ...... 2 Samuel Jackson Childers b: 09 October 1881 in Georgia d: 09 > November 1964 in Lamar County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index > 1919-1998) > .......... +Mary Willie Cauthen b: Abt. 1894 in Pike County, Georgia d: 17 > October 1993 in Upson County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index 1919-1998) > > .............. 3 Katheryn Childers b: 01 November 1914 in Pike County, > Georgia > .................. +James Wilhelm Wiggins > > ...... 2 Eunice Childers b: October 1885 in Georgia d: 22 June 1980 in > Lamar > County, Georgia (src: Georgia Death Index 1919-1998) > > .......... +Rois Alba Martin m: 27 November 1904 in Pike County, Georgia > (src: Marriage Record - Pike County, Georgia) b: 02 February 1884 in Pike > County, Georgia d: 08 November 1949 in Fulton County, Georgia (src: > Georgia > Death Index 1919-1998) > > ...... 2 Maude Childers b: August 1887 in Georgia > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "LARRY CHILDERS" <LN_CHILDERS@charter.net> > To: <gapike@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Saturday, April 10, 2010 10:08 PM > Subject: Re: [GAPIKE] Roll Call > > >> 10 April 2010 >> Larry L.
