Gaddis List...I was helping Peggy locate her William/Willis Gaddis and sent her the following information from the 1880 census index. Hers is the son of Lewis and Sarah Gaddis. I'm forwarding this to the list in case any of the others will be of use to one of you. Janet, Gaddis Group #12

Peggy, from the 1880 index these were the male William (or W.) GADDIS' who were born in GA in the ten year span of 1858-1868.

GADDIS, William Son <1858> M W GA GA
GADDIS, William L. Other <1861> M W GA TX
GADDIS, William Son <1862> M W GA GA
GADDIS, Willis A. Son <1864> M W GA GA
GANAS, William Son <1859> M W GA GA
GASSET, William Son <1864> M W GA GA
GADDIS, W. B. SonL <1859> M W GA GA

This to me looks like there are no William Gaddis' in AL in 1880 who were born in GA. I should check that again. Yep, that's right. Hmm...

I'll begin with the one in Texas.

Janet, I have had a very hard time in finding any GADDIS' in Ala.
My William Gaddis was suppose to be born around or about 1863/64 in Ga, Lumpkin Co., or Gilmer Co..
He has told several different ages and where his parents were born. On early records he has the middle initials of "A", but when he was in Alabama in the later years he had "L" for the middle name.
William did marry in 1898 in St. Clair Co., Alabama.
Thanks for anything.
Peggy
