Co. Wills: (my excerpts) #1268. Charles Williams, 25 March 1802, January 1803. Daughter Ann Abernathy, Exec: Joseph Abernathy, David Williams. #1269 Charles Williams, (must be son) 6 February 1833, April 1857. son Millington. To me, this jibes with the 1812 Maury TN tax list, which contains a Joseph and Millington Abernathy, and the name of Millington being so rare... I would love to find more info on Joseph: Any ideas? (I feel a bit tapped out). Otis Fuller
