Alice Conerly Gatlin Part 2

Alice Conerly Ancestors


Alice Conerly was the daughter of  Jeremiah and Leathia Conerly.  It is though the homestead testimony  for Jack Gatlin by Jeremiah that this relationship is identified.  Jeremiah was enumerated with William Conerly in the 1870 Pike County, Mississippi Federal Census. No familial relationships are identified in 1870 census. In the 1870 census William age is 68 and Harriet is 60. It is in the 1880 Pike County, Mississippi Federal Census that the probable father and grandfather of Jeremiah and Alice Conerly are identified.  In the 1880 census, William Rials and Dinah Rials are enumerated with their children and a father Will Conerly.

The father enumerated in the 1880 census is Will Conerly on the last line of image. This suggest that Will Conerly or William Conerly in the 1870 is the father of Dinah Rials. Dinah Rials is 28 years old in the 1880 census with date of birth 1852. Dinah was not listed in the 1870 census with William Conerly possibly because she was already married and living with her husband William Rials. From the information I found Alice Conerly parents were Jeremiah Conerly and Letha "Neathie" and paternal grandparents William Conerly and Harriet.  I have been unable to determine the parents of Jack Gatlin.
