Life

Asbury Morgan Kimbrough was born in Georgia on 22 July 1824, according to the FamilySearch tree, which cites no source for the date.1 On 30 June 1853 he married Nancy A. Willingham, the youngest daughter of Alban W. Willingham, in a record indexed under the name "Asberry M. Kimbrough"; the tree places the marriage at Rockford, Coosa County, Alabama.2 The federal census of 1860 recorded him in Tallapoosa County, Alabama, with Nancy in his household, and he appears that year in the slave schedule, the separate part of the census that listed enslaved people, by age and sex rather than by name, under the name of the person who held them.3 The tree names five children, born between 1854 and 1864: Cordera Eudora, Alban Eugene, Ophelia Beatrice, Corrilla Josephine and Asbury Morgan Jr.4 It records, without a source, his service in Company C of the 47th Alabama Infantry and his death in the Battle of the Wilderness, in Orange County, Virginia, on 5 May 1864.5 A Find a Grave memorial to Asbury Morgan Kimbrough is indexed; the tree's burial entry gives only the year 1864 and "United States".6 He is named as father in the Alabama death records of his daughters Corri J. Strickland, in 1916, as A. M. Kimbrough, and Dora Kelley, in 1930, as "Aubrey Kimbrough".7 His widow married John T. Edwards in March 1869.8
