    Notes 
    • Andrew Murray Anderson and Ann Eliza Gailey were first married in January, 1968.  The rites of matrimony were performed by Ann's uncle, Jeptha Vining Gailey, Justice of the Peace in Lawrence County, AL.
      Andrew Murray Anderson and Ann Eliza Anderson were remarried nine years after their first marriage.  This accounts for the nine years difference between the birth dates of their first and second children.  See notes under Andrew Murray for explanation of the reason for the second marriage.
