Note: My great grandmother's name was written as Margrett on the Marriages page above.
I'm not sure who these people are: William H. Gilley, Addie Gilley, Isum Gilley, Thomas Green Gilley. They will be added to my To Do list to find out who they are.
Green Gilley is my grandmother Annie Gilley Jowers' brother who is thought to have died in a sawmill accident.
I believe my great grandfather, Thomas Gilley, Jr., wrote most of the entries in these pages. He had beautiful penmanship.
