I know there are Tillman researchers on the list. I have just learned we may have a connection, besides the ones I have been trying to figure out, to no success so far, with Tillman Reece. My great-great-grandmother was Sarah Tinsley (many other middle names) Bills; who married 10 Alfred Paley Baker Reece, 2) Robert Payne Austin. I have just learned that my ggggrandfather, Abb Bills (Ataway Asberry, or possibly Attaberry) married a woman named Sarah Tillman. This was in Marshall Co., TN, in 1845. I believe Sarah died in childbirth when their daughter, Sarah Tinsley Bills was born, my gggrandmother. Abb and his second wife, Nancy Dodson, moved to Locust Grove, Weakley Co.,TN. Sarah Bills Reece moved to Taney Co. after she married Robert Payne Austin, formerly of Dallas Co. If anyone has more information on these folks, or can give me a lead, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any help you can give. Jerry Johnston
