Individual Details
Henry Waddill
(26 Dec 1802 - )
I have no idea if the following could have been this Henry Waddill. Georgia was a frequent destination for migrations from Virginia, as it was from North & South Carolina. The North Carolina Waddells are said to have immigrated from Ireland. Waddill/Waddell is found in all these places. But the 1850 census does indicate Henry's correct birth year and birth place.
1840. Marion Co GA
Henry Waddill. 1m -5, 1m 5-10, 2m 30-40. 1f -5, 1f -10, 1f 20-30
1850. Marion Co GA Hh 208
Henry Waddell, age 48, b. VA. Pensa Ann, age 33, b. GA
Children born in GA: Wm, age 11, Martha 9, Elva 7 [female], John 5, Chardy 3, [male - I wonder if this should have been Charly?]
Duncan Fleming, 10 and Lesley Fleming age 5 - both boys also b. GA
Interestingly, living in Marion Co GA in 1860 was a 65 year old Noel "Waddail", born in NC [1795]. His wife Susan was also 65 and born GA. A John Waddial, age 12 and born in Georgia, lived with them - probably a grandson. But by 1860, Henry appears to have "gone to Texas".
1860. Cass Co TX Hh 654
H. Waddell, age 58, b. VA. P. A. age 43, b. GA [female]
J. M. [male] age 14, E. [male] age 11, L. [female] age 8, F. M. [male] age 6 - all born in Georgia.
Hh 655 - next door
Wm Waddell, age 21, b. GA. B. A. [female] age 19, b. GA. W. H. [male], age 1 and b. GA
[apparently this family had just moved to Texas]
In 1870, young William had moved to Davis Co TX, Douglasville P.O.:
Hh 383
Wm Waddell, age 31, b. GA. Bettie, age 29, b. GA.
William H. 12, b. GA. Kittie, age 9, b. Arkansas. Mattie, 3, b. Texas. Florence J. age 5 months, b. in January in Texas.
Also living in Davis Co was his brother:
John M. Waddle, age 25, b. Georgia. Izobella, age 24, b. Texas. William, age 1, b. Texas.
I did not find the elder Waddills in 1870.
