(George) Franklin Broyles Gen. 5, id #375, Keith #420 Edited 20140603
========================= Son of William S. Broyles & Margaret Green |[1]
Born: 1838 TN, Washington |[5]
Died: 17 Jul 1863 TN, Davidson |[276]
Marr: Barbara Ann Moore
m: 23 Jul 1862 TN, Greene |[A]
Census:
Age BP Occupation
1850 Broyles, Frank TN, Greene 12 TN
1860 Broyles, George F. TN, Greene 21 TN Farm hand
George enlisted as a private in Company G of the 4th Infantry
Regiment Tennessee (Union).
He died during service and is buried in the Nashville National
Cemetery.
Keith [1] gives him two children, Clarence and Kate, and assigns them
spouses, Gladys Williamson and Quay Swatzel respectively. But
those marriages occurred around 1930 and all parties were in
their 20's, so Keith has made an error. Claude (not Clarence)
and Annie Kate Broyles were children of a Frank Broyles, but not
George Franklin Broyles. It's technically possible that George
Franklin and Barbara had a child before he died, but there's
no evidence to that effect. They married, he was mustered in,
and within a year he was dead. According to the census Barbara
did not bring any Broyles children into her marriage with William
French.
