Thanks for the reply to my post. I actually posted info a few weeks ago under the
"post" name acw which you can also read. As I mentioned I have just recently
made what I believe to be a definite connection to the Callis family thru Margaret Callis,
daughter of William Joseph "Billy Joe" Callis. So what I can offer is still
limited. I have found a marriage certificate for Margaret Callis to Joseph F. Williams
(my surname) in Sumner Co. TN in 1857. This fits with the census info for William Joeseph
Callis' daughter Margaret. Margaret is shown with this family in the 1850 census but
is not longer listed with the family in 1860, probably because she married in 1857.
Would love to find anything else about this Margaret. I have been able to view a copy of
the book "The Callis Family in the USA and England" and she is listed there as
being born in 1841.
Would also very much appreciate any photos of William Joseph Callis family. Would be
wonderful if we could all work together to assemble photos of all the children of William
Joseph Callis. I will be happy to share any info including photos as I am able to
discover.
Please stay in touch. You can also reach me at emailac(a)netscape.net
