Documenting the Details

Tombstone Tuesday: William Washington Lanier

February 9, 2010

New Hope Baptist Church Cemetery

Fredonia, Chambers County, Alabama
William W. Lanier
Born Mar 15, 1813
Died Feb 11, 1892
William Washington Lanier was my 2nd great-grandfather and according to his headstone, he died 118 years ago this week. There is a question about the exact date because the family Bible of his grandson, William Larkin Lanier, shows he died on January 28th. He was the son of James Lanier and Polly Smith. He married Charlotte T. Jackson on 22 Oct 1835 in Meriwether County, Georgia, and they had eleven children.
