Currently looking for information on the Gilder family. They moved from

resarching is James Irby GILDER born 26 Dec 1847 in Cotton Hills,
Randolph Co., GA married Nancy A. April 1867 d: Oct 20, 1929 in
Henry Co., AL, interred at Bethlehem Cemetery-east of
Headland, AL. Wife Nancy A. born 14 Jan 1849 d: 15 May 1935
buried bedside James.
James Irby enlisted as pvt in June 1863 Morgan, Calhoun Co., GA into
Fuler
Batallion Co. C continued until close of war. Discharged Jul 1865 at
Macon, GA.
Lived in Headland, AL since 1886. Children are as listed:
