- I have a puzzle and nothing but a dead end on one of my lines. There were at
least seven brothers and sisters in the SW Mississippi area during the late
1800s. It is likely they were in Franklin County, but may have been in either
of the surrounding counties (Amite, Adams, Lincoln, Pike, Copiah, lawrence,
Wathall, Wilkinson). These Foster siblings were: Fanny Foster m. Monroe MORGAN,
George Foster, Joseph Foster, Nan Foster m. _____________BULLOCK, Samuel
Foster, Vick Foster married Frank BUTTON, Delton W. Foster (1860-1937) m. Lelia
M. EADY. Who were the parents of these children? Where did they come from?
Where did they go?
Delton W. Foster and Lelia Eady Foster are my
ggrandparents. There is a family rumor that perhaps Delton was born in
Winnsboro, Louisiana, and that he and Lelia married in Franklin County,
Mississippi. Proof? I have none. Delton and Lelia were the parents of: Maude
Foster m. Clifford TILLMAN, Lula Foster m. Alex DAVIS, Otis Foster m. Ophelia
LOFTON, William Foster, Addie Foster m. John SUMRALL, Albert Foster m.
__________ MOORE, Lonnie Foster m. Rhetha ___________. Some of the children of
Delton and Lelia can be found in Lincoln and Lawrence County in the early part
of the 1900s.

General Henry William McMillan was born in
Pike Co., Mississippi. His parents left Pike Co., Ms about 1927 & moved to
Florida. Gen. McMillan in a letter to me said that his father was also named
Henry William McMillan. He also stated that he had always heard that he was
descended from the McMillan's in South Carolina.
