Ron, William Weatherford born circa 1835 in Ms. seems to be a mystery man.. Altho I have a lot of info on Weatherford's (Wetherfords), I have never seen a William W. (or Wetherford) born 1835 in Ms. On the 1850 census of Itawamba Co., Ms. there was a William Weatherford , born 1835, but his parents were 'Phebe" and Samuel. Young William was born in Ala.

The 1850 census of Prairie Co. , Ark. apparently wasnot included on the 1850 U.S. Census. ON the 1850 state census of Prairie Co. was listed a Weatherford Family. I don't know the birth years for the children, but the parents were Martin and Hannah Weatherford and they did have a son named William.. Bob Eddings
