This document shows that Gartha Willingham died prior to October 1844.  It also establishes that her and Garrett's son William Willingham died prior to July 1847.

Answer 1

Thank you for sharing this wonderful document. I love it because my father is from Kentucky, and I have been doing a lot of research in that area recently.

Just a couple of days ago I discovered a picture of my aunt's second grandfather. It was such a wonderful find, because -not only had she not known his name, she had never seen his picture.

Keep up the great work on your research.

I am loving it immensely.
