This
picture of James and his family was taken sometime between 1895 and 1900. Although
not verified the back row is assumed to be Alice, William E. and Reason A.
The front row, Mamie T., George P., James C., Anne E. and David M. James Clayton
was a Clearwater City Councilman in August of 1913.
1341. Mary
Jane Whittle (Burris, James Sr., James Jr., Wilson) was born in Edgefield County 2 Nov 1844 and died there 7 Oct 1928. She is buried
at Emory Methodist Church, Saluda County.
Mary
Jane married William Thomas Minick, born Feb 1832 and died in 1923. William
served the Confederacy in the 14th SC Infantry and was discharged at Hart's
Island in 1865. On the 1900 census, Mary Jane said that 6 of their 7 children
were still living.
1342. Georgiana
V. Whittle (Burris, James Sr., James Jr., Wilson) was born in Edgefield County 17 Jul 1848 and died 13 Aug 1892.
Little
is known about Georgiana. One Internet posting from a great granddaughter,
Mary Scott, says she married John R. Gibson. John is on the roster of the
14th SC Infantry and was discharged at Appomattox. Mary lists only one
daughter, Johnnie Estelle Gibson who married Herbert Harris Scott. John
and Georgia are on the 1870 census living in Edgefield County. John was
born about 1839. They are not on the 1880 census. On the 1900 census, "Stella" Gibson is living with her aunt Corrie Whittle and uncle Willie Moffett.

Allison
left Edgefield County sometime before 1880. He is found on the 1880 census
as a butcher living in Atlanta, GA. From information sent to us by Wade
Prater, Harvey worked with his cousin Hezekiah Lynch in the junk business
while he as in Georgia. Sometime before 1900 he moved to Calhoun County,
AL where he returns to farming.
Allison
married Eula Mae Moore after he left SC. Eula was born in GA, Mar 1857
and died in 1933. Allison and at least two of his children are buried

They
had 10 children, 9 of whom were living by the 1910 census. Thanks to
the article above provided by Jim Sexton, we now know that a son Otis
was likely the one who died before the 1910 census.

Emanuel nicknamed "Poss". Milton remarried Carrie Timmerman and they had an additional 9 children.

she was born 26 Oct 1849 and died 5 Mar 1909. The 1900 census says she
was born Sept 1851 and that she is a widow who bore 1 child and has no
living children. The dates on Ella Teresa's tombstone are 25 Oct 1882,
10 Oct 1883. Because all 3 are in the same cemetery, we assume it is one
family.

before 1910.

FL. He married Julia Almera Lanier and by 1880 they have 3 children.
Julia was born about 1854 and died before 1900. Without the 1890 census,
it is impossible to identify any other children, however by 1900 they
have a 7 year old daughter named Anne who would be 17 years older than
her sister. There are no Whittles found in Madison County by 1910.
