Robert A Thornhill

Question

I'm looking for the father and mother of Robert A Thornhill, born in Virginia in the 1858, Wife is Ella Nichols born MS, children are Glen Aubra,1888 in MS, Annie Pauline 1884 MS, Willis A 1896 MS, George D 1898. They then moved to Alabama.

Answer 1

Are you sure that he was born in Virginia in 1858 because there is a family tree on Ancestory.com which shows almost identical details (inclusive of Wife and Kids as being born Robert Augusta Thornhill, 1858 in Canton, Madison, Mississippi, USA.  This Robert A. Thornhill died 21 July 1922 in Jefferson, Alabama, USA.

If this is the correct Robert A Thornhill then the following details are relevant.

Father = Addison Augusta Thornhill, b.8 Feb 1811 in Bedford County, Virginia, USA. He died 3 September 1902 in Madison, Mississippi, USA

Mother = Harried Thompson Joiner, b.16 Aug 1820 in South Carolina, USA. She died in ? May 1865 in Canton, Madison, Mississippi, USA

(Addison Augusta Thornhill had a second wife Mary Wilkinson b.1844 to d.1909)

This tree links back to Jordan FitzEssulf Thornhill, Constable of Wakefield born in West Yorkshire, England if it is indeed the correct tree.
