Sharon, We corresponded years ago on Willis Center. Another "good researcher" recently sent me the bio you mentioned which helped to confirm Elizabeth Childress as the first wife of Willis Center. Thank you for the information and comments. I will keep you informed if we find anything of value and hope you will do likewise. Best wishes.

There is reference to a brother Bartholomew Childress?who died in AL?in a bio of W.A. Brown posted at www.allencountyky.com.? I followed some online references to Bartholomew Childress/Childers and no researches give sisters Nancy and Elizabeth - possibly because they were unknown to the online submitters.? I have posted queries on various lists with no responses yet.? I visited SC last week hoping to find reference to William and/or Thomas Childress.? There was a Thomas Childress in the same county as Jonathan Sr., Jonathan Jr, Starling/Sterling, and Samuel Senter/Sentell in the 1790-1810 SC Census.? Most people give a William Childers/Childress as the father of Bartholomew, but no one has provided a source of reference for that information.? I didn't find anything I was looking for.? The bio of W.A. Brown mentions that Nancy Terrell Childress was born in SC, and walked from GA to KY.? If she came with her sister and brother/in/law Willis and Elizabeth Childress Center to KY that would mean that Elizabeth and Willis came from GA to KY.? That also makes since because John Senter, son of Jonathan Senter/Sentell who died 1792 in Edgefield Co SC migrated to GA.? I have not found Willis Center in any records prior to 1817 land records in Allen County.? My theory is that Willis was a son of Buckner Center who died Warren Co NC, and a brother of Freeman Center/Senter who settled in Sumner Co TN, with Buckner being an older son of Jonathan by an unknown wife.? Jonathan Senter migrated from Brunswick Co VA to Warren Co NC to Edgefield Co SC.? My theory is based partly on the fact that the only 2 Center/Senter families in the entire US between 1780-1930 with the given names of Sterling/Starling and Guilford is the son and grandson of Jonathan Senter/Sentell of SC and Willis Center of Allen County.? Willis died 1858 in Allen County, but I am not at the right computer now to pull the documentation for you.

He was married to Nancy Guy in 1850 in Allen Co., Ky. I have heard he came from Va. And also from Ky. Have never had any luck finding him. There are other Millers in the area, but I cannot connect them for sure. I know there was another David Miller in surrounding counties that I am curious about, but no way so far to tie together.Any help would be so appreciated.
