The Hortons are intermingled with the Nixon and Coggin families that are direct ancestors to my husband. He does not have a direct connect, but have been able to develop a lot of information on the family lately. Any leads on William B. Horton's parents and wife's maiden name are sought. Also looking for proof of his relationship (if any) to John C. Horton (b. 1813 GA). John married Sarah Rivers on Jan. 26, 1836 in Pike Co. (Later found in 1840 Census of Pike Co., GA and then the 1850 Census of Fayette Co., GA). Is John the eldst son of William B. Horton? This tidbit, too: >From book, "History of Pike County" (~1932) "During the 1830's William Horton and Isaac McLeroy took cotton to Philadelphia and brought back dry goods." Looking forward to hearing from anyone working on this line! Valerie (Johnson) Freeman Tustin, California Descendants of William B. Horton 1 William B.
