To those who might read this post. Will Childers' wife was not Hattie McKee, but Lottie/Lettie Windham. The information about her being a McKee was from family lore. As with much family lore, stories and names became scrambled over time. My guess is that she was the sister of Ed Windham, who died in Rains County TX. They were also from either Kemper or Lauderdale Co. Miss. I don't know who their parents were. They are not my line.

26 june 2009 from Warren Forsythe
genealogy126 (at) FAIRPOINT.net
======================================
brief summary of revamped family trees today 25 June 2009 by Mrs. Hanks, who is a MAJOR Childers-Childress Assn family tree source:
She remains happy to do postal mail collaboration with y'all at 908 E. Seattle Ave, Ellensburg WA 98926-3917
http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=AHN&db=townsendthos&id...
(copy of what that says now at bottom of this message)
SUMMARY of changes to compiled parentage of BOTH SPOUSES: Lucy Childers and her husband Wesley Childers who married 28 Sept 1833 in Grant Co KY: [Formerly before 24 June 2009, Virginia Hanks compiled Wesley Childers as son of Solomon Childers, even though recent research emphasizes that father-Solomon&son-Wesley relationship remains totally unconfirmed by any document. Now Lucy (Childers) Childers) White's death record shows Wesley Childers's wife can no longer be asserted as dtr of Wm H Childers. Yet Grant Co KY Court Bk B: 370 of Nov 1842 shows Wm H. Childers to be Adm of Wesley's estate. Due to that discrepancy, we now remove Wesley as son of Solomon Childers, and compile Wesley as the last unknown-name census boy who was son of Wm. H Childers.]
Mary honditch's evidence does show that Lucy White who died July 1852 on County death records was evidently only child of the 18 march 1814 (Pendleton Co. KY bond date all that is known to us) Abraham Childers marriage to Sarah Morris. NOTE THAT CHANGE IN compiled parentage was announced 25 June 2009 by Virginia C. Hanks, a major source of the compiled Childers lines posted on
http://www.childers-childress.com/familyhistory.html
Note that Abraham is descended from a line of Childers shown by DNA etc by Childers-Childress Assn, evidently not to be related in North America to most of the other Grant Co. KY Childers lines.
Since Wm H Childers was administrator of Wesley/Westley Childers probate after Nov 1842 in Grant Co. KY, in Grant Co. KY Court Book B: 370 in Nov. 1842.
We infer that Wm H. Childers was father of Wesley Childers, first husband of the above Lucy (Childers) (Childers) White (ca.1815 - 1852). Wesley married Lucy 28 Sep 1833 so usual age for bridegroom makes Forsythe infer he born ca 1816 (mrs Hanks says born 1815-1820, from the census age categories of Wm H Childers' kids.) NOTE THAT CHANGE IN compiled parentage was announced 25 June 2009 by Virginia C. Hanks, a major source of the compiled Childers lines posted on
http://www.childers-childress.com/familyhistory.html

BTW Mrs. Hanks wrote 5 july 1872 Kenton Co KY for death of mary Alice landrum b. 1868, but Alice Landrum aged 12 ALIVE! on 1880 US census of Stewartsville, Grant Co KY

Message Board Post:
Apparently, there is some controversy amongst the various researchers as to whether Dulcina and Drucy are the same person because of inconsistencies between the dates of birth and reported parents. I'm sending the attachments for the files for Lewis and Drucy Childers death certificates.
Dulcina information:
Dulcina was listed with Lewis in the 1900 census at Broad River Township. Her estimated date of birth was 1831. Lewis' death certificate lists his parents as Dulcia Erwood and John Childers. The informant was J. Childers. The 1850 census lists a Kiley Arrwood with wife Rosanna and the appropriate aged Dulcinea. The 1850 census asks if the marriage occurred within the year; that box is checked for both Kiley and Rosanna.
Drucy information:
However, Drucy's death certificate states she lived in King's Mountain Township at the time of her death with her date of birth as 1844. Additionally, the death certificate information was reported by Earl Price; I don't know if he was a relative or not. Her parents were reported as Wylie Good and Judie Tigue. Another thing that I noted on the pension apllication for Drucy was that she reported she was married to John on 10 Aug 1862. I don't know if the custom on the applications was to report whether they were married on the actual wedding date or the date of enlistment for the man in the CSA forces.
I can see both sides of the argument whether Drucy and Dulcina are the same person. I looked for a Drucy in the 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880 and 1900 censuses. I did a first name only search (drucy and Drucilla) with the estimated date of birth from the pilot site at family search. No such person is reported with a name close to Childers. I can also see the informant, Earl Price, reported Kiley Arrwood as Wylie Good. Kiley could be Riley or Wiley. Arrwood was reported as Erwood on Lewis's death certificate by a family member. It is not unreasonable for a non-family member to report the name as Good.
The best thing I can think of to clarify is to look for Dulcina/Drucy in the 1910 and 1920 census records. I'll have to be able to go the Dallas Public Library to do the search. I'll let you know what I find out.

Hello Joy
I Believe from what i've been recently told, that
Louisa ------ Childers, was actually Surname Wiley from
her Father Jackson Wiley and her Mother Maria Wiley in
marriage. At approximately age 12 her parents passed away
and her Grandfather James Childers took her into the family.
She is my son's G Grandmother and we have foundthe relatives
still living in the Tulsa Oklahoma Creek Nation,
Wagoner County. My son is now 18 and he has 2 sisters and
1 brother, their Father is Larry Calvin Starks from
Louisa Wiley Childer's marriage to Samuel Starks, they had
5 - 6 children, one of which is Edgar Starks, my son's
Grandfather. Edgar is in the Springfield Cemetery, Tulsa
and others including Starks, Childers, Mantooth.
I don't have any moretime , but I will post again, as I
have the time.

I was wondering if you knew who Louisa Childers parents were? My 3rd great grandmother is Mary Ann Childers, daughter of John Childers and Ursula Demoss. John and Ursula had a son Richard C. Childers b. 1832 Indiana d. 1917 Arkansas, his wife was Rebecca Emily Freed b. 1836 ARKANSAS d. 1904 Arkansas. They had a daughter named Louisa Eliza Arkansas Childers b. 2 Oct 1872 in Johnson co., Arkansas. Do you think this could be your Louisa?

My son ids of the heritage Chiders/Starks. Family resides in Tulsa, Wagoner County, Creek Nation Oklahoma. His Grandfather is in a burial site in the Springfield Cemetery.
Edgar Starks, Father of Lawrence Calvin Starks, Father of
Jonathan Tanner Starks. G G G Grandmother was
Louisa [Childers][Wiley] Starks. We have been told the family resided in the Creek Nation, but the true heritage was of Cherokee and Louisa Chiders is the Enrolled #. I have strong belief that Benjiman Childers may have taken the women's name of Childers, as common with Native American
ways. Father of Edgar Starks was Samuel Starks whom was
married to Louisa [Wiley][Childers] and Samuel Starks was the son Benjiman Starks, intertwines somehow with the
Childers family of Wagoner County Oklahoma.
Please correct me in the heritage info. I'm trying to put
together the puzzle of my Son's Heitage and he is of the
Cherokee Blood / Creek Blood / Chotaw
