Re: Gholson/Gholston Ms./Tn.
I was searching for relatives on my mom's side (Hamer) of family in Ms when i ran across your search. My dad was Wintson Whitney, Susie (Gholson) Whitney was his mother and her brother was Marcella Gohlson, and her sisters that i can remember were Aunt Georgia, and Aunt Florence who were also Uncle Marcella's sisters both lived in Mississippi until health cause them to move with children. Because my dad and mom (Dora mae Hamer) were not married i don't have a lot information on the Gholson except i do remember Uncle Marcella when i was little going to Sims Chapel Church. I live in Chicago,Il and I keep in touch with Aunt Georgia's children and grand children (which are my age)
