Thank you Catherine and James for your responces. I just have been so confused for sometime, and I guess I needed help. All these William Prestons' and John Williams in my family is enough to make you that way. My brother is even named William Preston, that name just kept going and I don't know why yet.

I have included below the #24 Commieanne on the web page with dates included. By now you should have some of them from the photos I uploaded.

My cousin has the Bible and lives in GA. I can't reveal it unless she wants me to. She scanned the images for me. It is the same list her mother hand wrote for my sister many years ago, that she copied from the Bible. It confused me way back them. The name Wesley, not William for one thing. But others records have William the Bible Wesley. Why did the do that??????????????

Jameson is in our records as being his half brother and sister. The other spelling in our records show Jamison. So far I have found nothing on the Jimerson name, but still looking.

To answer your question about John W Broome b 1893 having a brother W P Broome Jr is correct. I included a photo of his tombstone Wesley P Broome,d 1941. He also had a sister Margaret Weston Broome.

John W Broome b 1893, had a son also in the images John W Broome Jr b. 1920. Yes, and there is a John W Broome III.

Hope this info helps, hope it helps me.

Here are two of the images.  William Preston was the recorded in records retrieved, but Wesley in Bible.  I don't know if who ever wrote this knew his real 1st name.  Bible says Wesley, but he wrote a note as Preston.  I had a hard time making out the letters in front of his name.  Col, Eol, Eul. Probably Eul., For his eulogy for Mary to us for the family.  I don't know.  This was for all to remember him by.
