    3. I am searching for information on William Riley Tankersley. Riley was born in Walker Co., GA 14 Feb 1835. He married Rebecca Wilson, daughter of Wask Wilson, around 1857 in Franklin Co., TN. Riley enlisted in TN during the Civil War. He divorced Rebecca after the war and moved to Jackson Co., AL where he is present on the 1870 census with just his children. He then married Mary Ann Pruitt, daughter of Burroll Pruitt, 2 Apr 1874 in Jackson Co., AL. Apparently he and family moved back to Franklin Co., TN where they are present on both the 1880 Federal Census and the 1890 Veteran's Census. He and Mary were in Hot Spring Co., AR by 1911 where he applied for his military pension. Is anyone out there researching this line? Thank you. Rochelle White
