Hello everyone; It has been quite a while since I wrote to the list and I've noticed there are more people now so I thought I would write again I am searching for: John W. Flowers married Caroline VonMetz Witt. Their son, George W. was born 17Mar1850, died 8Apr1913 in Hickman County It seems Caroline is buried in the Columbus Cemetery. I don't know if George had any siblings. George married Virginia SMITH who was born in Dec. 1851. Death certificates say she was born Dec 1851 in Philadelpia PA but I can not find her family. She died 28Dec1937 buried in Columbus Cemetery. George was a minister of the Hope Missions. He served in a parish in Shelbyville KY and then moved on to Hickman County in 1878. George and Virginia had Perry Edward 27Nov1877 died 5Jan1914 buried at Columbus Cemetery; George Raymond 15Sep1879 died 29Nov1948 where unknown; Liston Raleigh Feb 1882 died unknown; Arne (?) June 1884; Virginia A. born unknown; Zeletta born Apr 1891 buried in Columbus Cemetery? Perry's death certificate shows he was married but I don't know to whom. George Raymond married Cressie Craig. Liston Raleigh married Margaret GEST who was born Mar1889 in CARLISLE KY They had Veneeta born 1910 in Kentucky; Virginia born 1912 in Kentucky; Murl Marie born 2May1913 died 5Jan1914; Liston Raleigh Jr. born 1916 and Harry Gest born 7Sep1921 in Obion County TN. >From what I've gathered so far, Liston, Harry and possibly young Virginia moved to Detroit Michigan sometime during or before 1936. If anyone is related or knows of the FLOWERS please let me know. Also, I am having a very difficult time finding anything on Margaret Gest's family. I think her parents were Chas J (CJ) and Susan GEST. Other surnames connected to this family are ROBERTS, and WELLS Thank you kindly for any and all help. plaleeze
