Mike: I read the response from Cindy to your original posting, then I looked up her resource in Goodspeeds. I would like to know which information is accurate on the John A. Bramblett, Jr. Goodspeeds indicates his birth to be in 1813. My records show his parents to have been married in 1813 with 12 children following; the first being born in Oct. 1814. With John A. Jr. being #9 I find it hard to accept that he was born in 1813. My records show him to be born 18 Aug 1831 in Georgia. I have the name of his wife as Louisa Clementine Culley with no other information. If you have more, please let me know. I'm sending a copy of this message to Carolyn Smotherman as she's quite knowledgeable in these and related families.

Hi Larry, Carolyn is indeed the expert on the Bramlett line, but my information is exactly the same as yours. John A. Bramblett, Jr. born 18-AUG-1831, Georgia and died June 12, 1905 in Bedford County. He married on January 21, 1852, Louise Clementine Culley, born and died in Bedford County December 05, 1834-June 25, 1903. I have info on their 11 children if you are interested. I went back to the Goodspeed book and verified his birth date and it is listed as August 13, 1813. Could very well be a typo (3's instead of 8's).
