Message Board Post:
I've just begun my search after my dad gave me a bunch of family photos and papers
collected over the years. What I have to offer is:
Margaret Elizabeth Callis was my paternal GGG Grandmother. She married Joseph Franklin
Williams. They had three children. The firstborn was William John Franklin Williams, my
GG Grandfather. His third child, daughter Willie Elvie, is my G Grandmother. Her second
child, daughter Julia Mae Caldwell, is my Grandmother. Her first child, Robert Edward
Underwood, is my father. Other names in this lineage is Lunsford and Spain.
I have more information if anyone is interested. I don't want to give you info you
already have. I have not confirmed much of anything and all I have is handwritten family
notes.
Have any of you been accepted into the DAR? That is the purpose of my search. Any info
is appreciated and I am happy to share all names and dates I have.
I am excited to learn about William Joseph Callis. I didn't have any info before
Joseph Franklin Williams, who is listed in the 1900 census as a boarder in TN. It
indicates he is a widow. Margaret Elizabeth Williams is listed with him and their first
born in the 1860 census, Sumner Co TN Family #1036.
Thanks, Kathy
