Willis C. had a daughter by his first marriage who settled in Bienville Parish, La. I am searching for descendants of WILLIS C. SHIPP who was a lawyer in Dudleyville in 1850-1862. He was born in Pitt County, NC in 1812. He married CELETA E. GEORGE on Nov. 17, 1834 in Jasper County, Georgia. By the 1840 census was in Walton County, Georgia and by 1850 was in Tallapoosa County, Alabama. His children were; Sarah married GEORGE J. THOMPSON; Caroline died July 18,1851 buried in Old Dudleyville Cemetery, Burton W. married AMERICUS VICKERS; Mary Ann Melissa married AMOS IVEY; Lettie married JOHN THOMAS BOONE; Martha Jane married ELBERT Lovelace SHROPSHIRE; Selina married W. T. RIGGINS. Willis C. first wife died in 1858 and he married ROZILLA A. CLANAHAN, widow of WILLIAM CLANAHAN of Dadeville. They had two children Virginia and Walter. WILLIS C. SHIPP died in 1862. Willis C. Shipp had a son named Walter by his second wife Rozilla Clanahan. Walter was born after the 1860 census since he was not listed. I believe that this is the Walter Camel Shipp who settled in the Alabama community of Redland in North Bossier Parish.(Plain Dealing) Celeta George Shipp died on Jan.9, 1858 in childbirth . The still born infant is buried in the Old Dudleyville Cemetery along with Celeta and there dates of death match this information. He married Rosalla Clanahan on November 10, 1858. They had a daughter born in 1859. The 1860 census shows her to 10 months.
