Individual Details
Randolph WILLIAMSON
(1836 - 1903)
I think Randolph Williamson was married at least three times, with the first marriage being t o Minerva Jane Prather. On page 466 of the Marriage Records of Knox Co., IN, 1871-1875, ther e is also the following entry:
Randolph Williamson and Laura A. E. Ritter
License 9 Jun 1874 - I did not find an actual marriage record.
On page 120 of the Marriage Records of Knox Co., IN, 1875-1879, I found the following entry:
Randolph Williamson and Mrs. Mellissa J. Davis
19 Dec 1875
Third marriage was to Anna Lloyd on 21 Dec 1886.
Re children of Randolph: From a letter written by Fred Franklin, Steele, MO, dated 14 Mar 19 79: "My grandmother Louisa (Williamson) McIntire died about 1931 at our house. She had tw o half brothers, Randolph and Ben Williamson. Randolph has been dead about 10 years (died De nton, MO). Ben died a few years later (Blytheville, AR). She has a half sister living now . Her name is Bertha Biggs."
Fred's wife, Lucille Franklin, wrote on 3 Dec 1979: "Fred and I went to Denton yesterday t o locate Aunt Bertha (Biggs, age 86). She lives in a little three-room house in Denton (smal l community four miles west of Steele, MO). Her dad (Randolph Williamson) was married three t imes and had children by each marriage. She mentioned a half sister, Mathi (Symathia Teague) , who passed away four years ago and is buried at Paragould, AR. She also mentioned Sadie (S arah Jones), four years older than Bertha, born March 1889. She also mentioned Louisa, Lee M cIntire, and 'Half Elda.'"
