Hi Doug, Could you mean Thomas Houston Childress (b. abt 1875) who married Usabiah Surratt 20OCT1892 in Carroll? If so, he was the son of William Henry and Malecia Elizabeth Childress from NC. Usabiah was the daughter of Abel Surratt and Janet Bullion. I don't have any information on them after their marriage and that they had a son die of pneumonia; Willie V. Childress (1893-06FEB1896) best regards, Ron Hall doug bishop <dbishop2@ameri To: VACARROL-L@rootsweb.com tech.net> cc: (bcc: Ronald W. Hall/US-Corporate/3M/US) Subject: [VACARROL] Childress and Surrat 04/30/2002 family 08:06 AM Hi to All, Anyone know anything about a Houston Childress that married a Lucy Surrat in early 1900's in Carroll Co. VA? Houston does not appear in the 1920 Carroll Co. VA Census. His wife, Lucy - age 45 is listed as head of household with 3 daughters - Blanch, Ethel and Ader. Is there a 1900 Census of Carroll Co. VA that has been compiled? I really appreciate any info on these 2 families.
