Biography
The 1900 Census record interprets Willie's name as "Millie" in the transcribed form at familysearch.org, but the jpeg of the record shows the writer made a "W" if compared to his other "W's". Some transcripts also have her middle initial as F because of a stray mark over the V in the 1920 Census.
There is a transcribed marriage record for 06 February 1881 (which agrees with the 1900 US Census marriage date for the couple) for an A. L. Carruth and W. Norris of Ashley Co. AR, which I believe was a misreading of Harris. Absalom and Willie's eldest daughter was born in November of 1881, nine months after the marriage record's date.
According to a Carruth family member, Willie's parents were William and Margrette Harris.
Willie and Absalom are buried in Hamburg Cemetery, Hamburg, AR
