As I was reading through the Birdsong family tree, I noticed no one listed that Harriet, 'Hattie' Birdsong and her cousin Samuel J. Birdsong were married. Also not listed, was who Rebecca J. married, (William Hooper Caffey) and who Joseph J. married, nor either of the siblings children. I don't know if it was done on purpose? Or you simply didn't know.

Also, regarding Jefferson Jarrad Birdsong, aka J.J., he did not die March 14th, 1882. He died January 3, 1894. His wife, Jane, died March 14th, 1882. Her grave stone says she died at her home, in Hinds county (Bolton) Mississippi. J.J. may have died in Edwards.

Joseph J. and Anna E Birdsong's children are;
Josie, born in 1874.
Mattie A, born in 1872.
Withers, born in 1879.

Rebecca and (Fmr Capt, 7th Alabama regiment) William Hooper Caffey's children are;
Willie, born about 1876,
Hampton, born about 1878,
And one infant, born in 1880, name is currently unknown.

Hattie (Harriet Jane) and Samuel J. Birdsong's (Served through the entire Civil War as a Confederate soldier, stationed mostly in Virginia) children are;
Carrie C, born in 1873,
Hugh P, born in 1875,
Nat R, born in 1865.
Waverly V, born in 1877.

Possible other child, named Samuel E, born in 1870.

Hattie Birdsong, along with her husband and children are buried at the Edwards Cemetery, in Edwards Mississippi. Hattie's daughter, Carrie, married James D White, and shares a head stone with her husband.

T.J. Birdsong, Jefferson Jarrad's son, is buried in the Bolton Cemetery, in Bolton Mississippi.

Jefferson Jarrad and his wife Jane, are buried in rural Bolton Mississippi, where their former plantation was. The land is now privately owned.
