I think you meant that Lonnie Lilly married Sarah Upton and that his father was Greene Lilly. If this is correct then it looks like you have 2 Lilly lines through Lonnie Lilly.
His parents were Green W. Lilly and Louisa Jane Lilly. I don't have ancestors for Lonnie's wife Sarah Upton.
Would you be willing to trade what you know from your grandmother down? I can offer you information back to Robert Lilly and Mary Moody if you are interested.
Thanks for reply. My mom has a family tree in a roll that goes way back on the lilly family. I was hoping for any info from my grandmom s immediate family life while in hinton.
Did anyone know the family, her parents, where they are buried? i want to visit and see if i can find the old family farm. If it s still acessable. Graves? What would the old hotel have been called that sara upton would have worked at?
Hi Leslie,
I am also a great grand daughter of Lonnie and Sarah. My grandmother was the youngest of the sisters, Eula. Which sister is your grandmother? I recently have been looking for the same information. I have a letter that my grandmother wrote that tells a little about her growing up. I would be happy to share. I do not know where they were buried but plan to visit Hinton to see what I can find out. I will be happy to share any information that I find.
Hi Bob, I just ran across leslie's and your messages. I am also a great daughter of Lonnie and Sarah Lilly. My Grandmother was Eula Lee Lilly the youngest of the sisters. She was only 2 weeks old when her father died and approx 7 when her mother passed. I would be happy to share what little I know with you and would love any info you might have. I replied to Leslie and hope to hear from her and find out which sister was her grandmother.
