Facts and Events
William Mahaffey, Jr. William Mahaffey, Jr., was born May 30, 1813 at Montgomery Co., GEORGIA, and died October or December 30, 1860 He married Martha Patricia Touchstone, daughter of Dempsey Touch stone and Sarah / Sally Millsaps. She was born September 17, 1817, and died October 19, 1858. Millsaps genealogy shows her death as November 23, 1852. I do not find a burial place for either her or William. Determing her correct date of death would give us a clearer picture as to who mothered the last three children of William A. Mahaffey. Also, from Millsaps genealogy, I have one source saying that Martha married a Thompson. 1850 Simpson Co., MISSISSIPPI p.309 #321/321 Farmer $200 Census Image William Mahaffey 36 Georgia Martha Mahaffey 33 MISSISSIPPI Dumpsey Mahaffey 9 MISS ISSIPPI John Mahaffey 6 MISSISSIPPI Alsom Mahaffey 4 MISSISSIPPI Amster Mahaffey 3 MISSISSIPPI Mary Mahaffey 8/12 MISSISSIPPI * 1860 Simpson Co., MISSISSIPPI p. 187 #335/335 Farmer $4000/6305 Census Image William Mahaffey 4_ Georgia Susan Mahaffey 21 MISSISSIPPI Amster B.
