I live in the Chattanooga , Tn area and I'm from the Yother family. My grandmother was Sally Yother. Her father was James and her mother was Sarah Bond. James' father was William Wison Yother and his mother was Melissa Head. W. W.'s father was George Yother and his wife was Elizabeth Abercrombie. If this is the family you are looking for let me know.

Pat Ruby Falls is on Lookout Mountain above Chattanooga Tn. Most of the Yothers came from Ball Ground, Hall County Ga that are in this area. I have a friend who lives at Huntsville Alabamba and he is researching these same families. I don't know if any of the information I have will go with what you have but you are welcome to it. George W. Yother was in the Civil War and he died with pneumonia while he was in the service in 1865. His wife applied for pension. Her name was Elizabeth Abercrombie. They lived in Soddy Tn. and they are buried in the Union Fork Cemetery. Mariah Futrell thier daughter , William Wilson and his wife Melissa Head are buried there also. Sarah Yother Brown and Samuel Layfette Yother are both buried in the Granny Walker Cemetery with their spouses.As far as I know , Adam David Yother who married Lucinda Shaver moved to Missouri in later years. I've talk to some of his decendants who still live there and I'm told George had a son named Edward-Edgar Yother but I have no information on him. Maybe this is the same one. Keep in touch
