The following was sent by Jack F Campbell <[email protected]>, April, 2004. Seems to be a letter from Becky, mother of Gillie.... On December 23, 1791, as she had promised, Becky delivered our second baby girl. We named her Gillianna, and it didn't take long before the boys shortened that name to Gillie. They say that in the spring a man's fancy turns to love. I think that's exactly what happened to old man William Forrest's son, William Jr. He was known in these parts as Buck. I don't think a Sunday went by in the spring and summer of 1814 that he wasn't plopped out on our west porch making moon eyes at Gillie. Buck was twenty, a little pudgy, had a head full of bushy, red hair and a face full of freckles. Becky surprised me on one of those Sunday afternoons when she turned to me with a serious look on her face and said, "For the life of me, I can't see what Gillie sees in that boy. He's nice and polite enough, but I swear, he's got to be the ugliest boy in South Ca'lina." I replied, "Becky, you can't really mean that; from the looks of things he's probably gonna be our next son-in-law." I was right. Gillie and Buck were married at our house on September 23, 1814. We now have eight wonderful grandchildren. Harris and his wife, Mary, have a son, Warren, born in 1808, and a daughter, Nancy, born in 1810. Wiley and Amy Bledsoe Goodwin have a daughter, Caroline, born in 1808. Gillie and Buck Forrest have a boy, Jefferson, born in December, 1815, and a boy, Elza, born in September, 1816, both of 'em redheaded as a peckerwood. Of course, William and Mary have Harriet, Jack, and Simpson. Becky and all the women folk were in the process of setting the tables on the west porch when we saw two more carriages crossing the creek. Both were loaded with younguns. In the first one was Gillie and Buck Forrest. They now have four children, Jeff, Elza, Ellen, and Rebecca, six months. Little Rebecca was dead to the world when they got here, but that didn't keep Becky from taking her and sitting down to rock and talk baby talk to her newest namesake. In the next carriage was Charity and Dempsey Hatcher, with their children, Jackson, Elizabeth, Rebecca and Little Dempsey. The only families that wouldn't consider moving were those of Tom Wright and Buck Forrest. Tom's folks were in their late seventies, and he said he just couldn't leave them right now. Same thing with Buck. They didn't say it this way, but I knew they didn't want to leave all the land they would get when their folks died. Frances and Gillie will be broken hearted when they find out. Billie
