Wednesday, September 2, 1885 Page Two Wicksburg, Ala., August 19th, 1884 (typed as it appears in the paper) Old Father William Thomley is still living where he has lived for many years. He was married forty-one years ago and has seventy-one descendants with his sons and daughters-in-law, forty-five of whom are grandchildren, the age of the oldest being seventeen years. Only one of his family is dead. You see, from what I have stated that our young people are numerous. This is the first communication of a man who has inscribed for the STAR since 1870.
