Doctor Franklin Giles and Camilla O'Quinn married 12 January 1847 in Washington County, GA. Their children were:
1. Candace Giles born 1847; married in Rusk County, TX to William Frank Melton April 2, 1867.
2. William Bryant Giles born July 5, 1849 in Wahington County, GA. He died November 25, 1929 in Rusk County and is buried in a marked grave at Mt. Hope Cemetery, Henderson, Texas. He married three times, all in Rusk County. (1) Eliza Melton--November 28, 1867 (2) Annie Elizabeth Thompson--September 11, 1870. She died in Turner Town, Texas on October 10, 1886. They were the parents of nine children. (1) Doctor Franklin (2) Fannie (3) John (4) Lou
(5) Lude (6) William Jackson (7) Lewis Walter (8) Albert Sidney (9)Archie......William B.'s third marriage was to Mittie Lula Tipps on April 9, 1897
3. Daniel Morgan Giles born 1852

5. John A. Giles born 1854

7. James Franklin Giles born 1859 in Smith County, Texas. (the first of their children to be born in Texas)
8. Jefferson Davis Giles born October 21, 1861 in Smith County, TX
Doctor Franklin Giles born 1827; died December 4, 1862 in St. John's Hospital in Little Rock, AR of typhoid fever.
In 1870 Camilla is head of household, living in Rusk County with eight of her children. She later remarried to William Reynolds and resided in Van Zandt County, TX in 1880. in 1890 she was living in Freestone County, TX with her son Daniel Morgan Giles.
Hope this helps you some. I am assuming Doctor Franklin Giles is buried in Arkansas. As to where Camilla is buried I assume it would either be in Freestone County or if she did die at the home of Candance as thought by some she might be buried at that location.
