1949 - Death Cert. #9996, Greenwood Co, SC Mrs. Eliza Whatley Still Hill Female, white, widow b. August 21, 1867, Greenwood Co, SC * father: Edward Whatley, Edgefield Co, SC mother: Mary Cook, Edgefield Co, Sc d. August 11, 1949, Callison, Greenwood Co, SC cause: heart (lesion) informant: Mrs. E. (W.) Ouzts, Callison, SC buried: Mt. Creek Baptist Church Cem. UT: Blyth's Services NOTE: Cem. Records from Cem. Book as sent to me by HC Ouzts gives her date of birth as August 19, 1867. Date of birth on Death certificate is NOT primary source documentation. However, date of death is. Both cem. records and death cert. agree on her date of death. LOCATION of birth is incorrect. There was no Greenwood Co, at the time of her birth, but it was evidently in the area of Abbeville or Edgefield Dist. that later became Greenwood. Since I could not find the family in 1860, I don't know where they were before 1870. In 1870 & 1880 (Gray Township) they were in Edgefield Co. per census records. Greenwood Co. was formed in 1897 and the Gray township went into Greenwood Co. ------------------------------------------------------- COMMENTS on her family from research: This is how I have her connected.

He is listed in both the 1870 and 1880 Edgefield Co, Census records as EDMOND. Eliza's death cert. lists two married names Hill and Still. Prior to this I did not have a marriage to a Hill. She had to have married Mr. Hill between 1880 and 1886, as she is listed with her parents in 1880 and is married to Shemuel Still ca 1886. Marriage attachment to Shemuel Still was made based on the info. sent to me by Dr. Connie McNeill. ***Does anyone know which HILL she married. 1 Eliza WHATLEY b: August 19, 1867 SC d: August 11, 1949 Burial: Mt.
