Individual Details

Jeff Davis Higginbotham

(Apr 1861 - 9 Sep 1933)



Jefferson never married.

In 1930, he was still living in Smith Co, TX. He was with the family of Walter E. & Nannie Garrett, listed as Jeff D. Higginbotham, Cousin, age 69. Walter & Nannie were much younger and I do not know their exact relationship. Perhaps Nannie was a daughter or granddaughter of Jefferson's sister Nannie.

His death certificate gives his age as 72 years, 24 days, born 15 Apr 186 in Troup, TX1. He died of cancer of the face. Parents listed as Walker Higginbotham and Elizabeth Quarles, both born in Mississippi. Mr. Jno. Holden gave the information for the record.
