William Scott 1785- and Margaret 1788- in the 1850 Phillips Co, census

William Scott and his wife Margaret were married 1832 in Ouachita Parish, LA.

The probate records of Charles Whitson d 1844/5 in Franklin Co, AR make it clear that Margaret was the grandmother of Charles' children. Margaret herself states that one of slaves was a gift from her brother William Collins. Her new husband William Scott states that Margaret was lately Margaret Miller prior to their marriage.

In the 1830 Ouachita Census, LA we find Margaret Miller, living next to William Keller.

Charles Whitson married Feliciana Keller in 1828 in Ouachita Co. The probate records note that the mother of the children was named Feliciana. Feliciana is also the name of a town or area in LA.

In 1818 Mrs Keller married John Miller in Feliciana, LA

So Margaret (Collins) 1 Keller 2 Miller 3 Scott who appears in 1850 Phillips Co, AR with her husband William Scott was the mother of Feliciana Keller who married Charles Whitson. Feliciana and Charles both died in Franklin Co, AR.

One child Eliza Ann Whitson married Alfred Coffee 1846 in Phillips Co, AR. Alfred was the admin of the estate after the prior admin James Gilbreath had vacated it (probably to move to Texas). James Gilbreath Sr was the father of Charles Whitson' latest wife (after Feliciana had died).

If any of this sounds familiar. William Scott, John Miller, Feliciana Keller, Margaret Collins, William Collins, etc... in the records of Phillips Co, please let me know.
