Henry County marriage records show William Green marrying Drusilla Clubb (marriage license dated Nov. 29, 1871 and marriage certificate dated Nov. 30, 1871). The Henry County Cemetery Book shows William Green as being buried in the Franklinton Cemetery ( stone shows birth year of 1848 with a death year of 1939). No records of any type have been located to verify that John Brickley lived in the Franklinton area or in Henry County.

Just an FYI... I have just posted the 1810 Henry County Census and Index to the web site. It was transcribed by Don Rubarts. Don does not research Henry Co. but transcribed this as a favor to me. Hope it will help our researchers!
