    WILLIAM I. BULLOCK, of the firm of Almon & Bullock, attorneys at law,
Russellville, Ala., was born in Franklin county, Ala., October 6, 1859, and is
the elder of the two children born to Frank and Kate (Tompkins) Bullock. Frank
Bullock was a son of William J. and Elizabeth (Sugg) Bullock of North Carolina
and Alabama, respectively, was a farmer by calling, and was killed in the battle
of Perryville, Ky., while fighting for southern independence. Mrs. Kate
Bullock's parents were William and Harriet Tompkins, of Alabama. William I.
Bullock was educated in his native county, and was married, in 1887, to Lelia
Anderson, daughter of Judge Sidney S. Anderson, of Alabama, the union being
blessed with two children, Lucile and William Almon. Mr. and Mrs. Bullock are
members of the Missionary Baptist church, and faithfully live up to its
teachings. The Knights of Pythias also claim Mr. Bullock as one of their order.
In the politics of the county and state Mr. Bullock takes a lively interest, and
the democratic party takes a lively interest in him. In 1884-85 he was elected
by that party to represent Franklin county in the state legislature. He is a
member of the democratic state executive committee, and is altogether an active
worker for the party's interests and for the general good of the people. The law
firm with which he is connected, is looked upon as the leading one in the
county, and its business is consequently quite lucrative. . The Bullock family
is of English .extraction, and the Alabama branch has always been held in the
highest esteem.
