My Grandmother who was born as AdaBell
Sheppard in Louise,Ms on Feb. 28,1893 married twice, first to George
Washington Welch who was a railroad man and they had 3 living children together, Raymond
Beauregard Welch who was born on July 26, 1909, Maggie Elizabell
Welch who was born Sept.15,1908 I think(She died as Helen P
Buckner in 1999 in NY), and O'Dell L. Welch who was born in Russellville,
Alabama on Jan. 26,1919 or 1920. They had another daughter, Viola
Henrietta Welch who died of scarlett fever at age 2 or 3. Ada and G.W. Welch divorced and she married William (Willie) Gordon who was from
Augusta,
Ga.
She had my mother, Dorothy Mae Gordon in
Charleston,SC on Sept. 12,1927. She and Willie Gordon divorced also.
My husband has some
Hughes in his family lines, and all his Crawfords are from the lower area of SC. Your
Ada is apparently a different
Ada Gordon. God
Bless. Janice C.
