Notes for LEAH MCBRAYER: One source gives DOB as 3 Oct 1829. Since her father was in GA in 1843 and she was married in Rutherford Co., NC in 1846, it is possible that both she and her sister, Druscilla, remained in NC when the family migrated southwest into northeastern GA. Leah was married in 1846 in Rutherford Co., NC. to Samuel Harrill. Living with the family in 1850 was Leah Harrill (age 22, b NC), daughter of William Harrill and Priscilla McBrayer. |

|
Notes for DRUSCILLA MCBRAYER: Since her father was in GA in 1843 and Druscilla's marriage took place in 1854 in Cleveland Co., and her sister, Leah, was married in 1854 in Cleveland Co., it is possible the two youngest children of William remained in the Carolinas with family members when their father migrated to the southwest to Northeastern GA. |

Notes for WILLIAM G. MCBRAYER: (Almost all the information on the descendents of William G. McBrayer has been graciously provided by Raymond Cathcart.) He was listed as '18' in the 1850 census and '29' in the 1860 census. The 1860 census, Solola Farm, Dade Co., GA, (974th District G M, Hobbie PO, Dwelling 368, Family # 319) found by Raymond Cathcart shows the following information: W.G. McBryar, 29, m, Farm Laborer, b NC Elizabeth, 25, f, b GA Joseph G., 8, m, b GA Mary V., 5, f, b GA Annie 4, f, Sarah, 8/12, f, b GA (I have just found an 1860 Federal Census enumeration of the W. G. McBryar [29, M, Farm Laborer, born NC] (the spelling may be misconstrued, but I am comfortable that it should be as I have it) family in the 974th District G M, Hobbie PO, Dade County, GA (NARS Microfilm Pub. No. M653, Roll No. 118, page 1002 [sheet 48], Dwelling 368, Family No. 319). The others (wife and children?) in residence are Elizabeth, 25, F, born GA; Joseph G, 8, M, born GA; Mary V, 5, F, born GA; Annie, 4, F; and Sarah, 8/12, F, born GA. The wife and children are the same as enumerated in the 1870 Federal Census of Jasper, 7th Civil District, Marion County, TN (NARS Microfilm Pub.

Notes for ALFRED MCBRAYER: It is thought this Alfred was from the Dade Co., GA area and MAY have been the father of Green McBrayer who married Malinda Lucrecia ?. If it was the same individual he served in the 4th (8th) TN Calvary (Smith's Regiment) during the Civil War. Alfred was captured at Smith Co., TN and served about 18 months in a POW camp. Also in the same regiment and from Dade Co. was a Green McBrayer. Green enlisted on 3 Aug 1863 and took his oath of allegiance to U.S. on 1 Apr 1864. His physical description was: 5' 7", blue eyes, dark hair and dark complexion.

Notes for THOMAS JEFFERSON 'JEFF' MCBRAYER: Most of the information contained herein on the family of Thomas Jefferson McBrayer and his descendants has been provided by Cindy Lou Rogers Miles (clmhearts@farmerstel.com) We are indeed indebted to her for her most generous and unselfish contribution to the family lines. Jeff lived in the NE corner of Alabama, primarily in Jackson Co. (records) and apparently crossed the border into Dade Co., GA, since many records have him and/or his family in that area. Records of Discharged Soldiers, Scottsboro, AL courthouse, 1960 Habersham Co., S.C., enlisted in the 4th Alabama Calvary, Co. "E". Continued to the end of the war. Was on the Coosa (or Goose) River when he was discharged." (note: There is no Habersham Co. in SC; one is located in GA.) At some point in time the family surname was changed to "McBryar" as recorded on some of the headstones in the McBryar Cemetery in Jackson Co., AL. Spelling differences were also noted in many of the census records of the late 1800s and early 1900s. "He is buried in the McBryar Cemetary in Jackson Co., AL. It is not far from where I live, but I am not sure whether it is in Bryant, AL. or Higdon, AL. Both places are very small and close to each other. The cemetary is off the road and you would have to know where to turn to get there. There are several graves around his that I was told were his wives. He moved HUGE slabs of rock over the graves. There is only one wife with a tombstone, though, and that is Clarrie's. ....... There are no rock slabs on her grave...." "Thomas was married, I am told, at least two or three times. Two are supposedly sisters, Elizabeth and Clarrie." (Cindy Lou Rogers Miles) Cindy states, "He (her father-in-law) told me the cemetery (the McBryar Cem.) was McBryar land and that it had been given for a cemetery with the understanding that no one would be charged for a plot there. 1870 Fed. Census, Long Island P.O., Jackson Co., AL, p 33, Dwelling # 110 Thos. J. McBrayer, age 28, b S.C. Elizabeth, age 22, b GA Virginia A., age 7, b GA Saira E., age 4, b AL Roda E., age 1, b AL Sara Price, age 54, b TN (Is this Elizabeth's mother?) It is shown by the census records that T.J. was married 1st before 1861 to an unknown wife & had two children by this marriage. This is proven by marriage records for his second wife, Elizabeth - date of marriage 8 Mar 1868, and the ages of the children in the 1870 census.
