A Wilson Family Tree

Notes for Miles Franklin (Frank) Gathright



Several sources say he was born about 1811, but the 1850 census (Franklin Co., AL) gives his age as 35. I don't know which is right, but Jennifer Gatherwright (a descendant) is using about 1815 for his birth.

WFT 5 # 1346 and Dallas Gathright say he died in 1869 in Athens, GA, but Jennifer Gatherwright says 1859 in AL.

See the notes for sister Marian for a court notice about guardianship after they were orphaned.
