    3. I am researching Elizabeth Frances Newman born April 1848 in Thomaston, Upson Co., Ga. She married first. William Henry Williamson bn abt 1843 in Pike Co. and died abt. 1881-1889 in Pike Co., Ga. I'm unable to find a record of their marriage of about 1868. I'm also unable to find a record of William Henry's death. He was supposed to have shot himself due to change of imposed life style after the civil war. Elizabeth Frances was apparently orphaned about 1853 or before and along with possible sibblings; A. Jack Newman, Sarah A.M. Newman, L. Mary Newman, David Jonathon Newman, and Tom Newman went to live with possible Uncle Dave Newman and wife N. L. (Nicey) ?. This family was in Upson Co. in 1860 and in PIke by 1870. They resided in Pike County until about 1912. After William Henrys death, Elizabeth Frances remarried abt. 1881-89 to George Tillman Bailey, an old school friend from Upson County that had since been widowed. They then migrated with some of both their children to McCurtain Co., Okla. and died there. I've no record of Elizabeth and Geo. Tilmans marriage. A list of Elizabeth Newman and Henry Williamson children: Virginia Ellen; William Jackson; Viola; Julia Ann; James Monroe; Nancy 'Nicie' Matilda, George Henry and Ernest T. 'Tete' Williamson. Elizabeth and Geo. Tillman had no children together. George's children by previous wife known to me is: William C. 'Billy', Carrie, Elizabeth 'Levissa', and Drewery Bailey. I hope some of these families are being researched - I would love to hear from you.
