Life

William G. Herrin was born in Georgia about 1820, according to the FamilySearch tree, which cites no source for it.1 He married Eda J. Willingham, a daughter of Alban W. Willingham, in Chambers County, Alabama, in December 1843; the county marriage indexes give the day variously as 8, 11, 12 and 19 December and the surname as Herrin, Herin and "Henin".2 The federal censuses of 1850, 1860 and 1870 recorded him in Coweta County, Georgia, as William J. Herrin, William G. Herring and William G. Herrin, in 1870 in District 646, with Eda in his household each time.3 The tree names eight children born between 1846 and 1866.4 On 27 October 1874, after Eda's death, he married Harriet A. Johnston in Chattooga County, Georgia, in a record indexed under the name William G. Herron.5 The census of 1880 recorded William G. Herron at Alpine, Chattooga County.6 The tree gives no date or place for his death.1 His son Thomas Rhodom Herrin's Texas death record of 1943 names the father as "W B Herrin".7
