WALDROUP She married Aaron Wooten, place and date shown from marriage records of Habersham County GA. Middle initial from 1850 census records. Ref.;; 1870 U. S. Census for Habersham County GA; Batesville/501 District; Page 38; Line 23; name is spelled Huldah WOOTEAN. The surname should be spelled Wooten instead of Wootean. Information about place of birth came from records of Joseph Brown Waldrep, Jr although Joe shows her first name as Matilda. Careful reading of the original Marriage records show Mahulda as her name. 1870 Census for Habersham County, Georgia, Batesville 501 District, Page 38, Line 23. Her married name, Wooten, is very evident in the cemetary at the Providence Baptist Church, but her name was not researched at the time Lloyd and Jim Waldrep walked the cemetary in 1993. Birth date taken from the 1834 school student listing for Huldah Waldrup on Page 26 of the book written by Betty Sisk and Ellene Gowder which is titled "Once Upon a Time: Schools of Habersham County Georgia, 1818-1955. She is shown as 12 years old. CHILD 2 - Hortense C. WALDREP From information Joe Brown Waldrep, Jr. gave us from family sources. Is she a twin to Samuel Isaac Waldrep? CHILD 3 - Samuel Isaac (Waldroup) WALDROPE The 1860 census for Habersham County GA showed him as dwelling 290; family 290; at age 35, married to Nancy, age 38; son Andrew age 11; son Lewis W. age 8. 1856 minutes of Providence Baptist Church of Batesville, GA mentions that S. I. Waldroupe was received by experience. Some reported him in TX, Ellis Co, but that man was a son of Claiborne Parrish Waldrop. Were he and Hortense twins? He is listed as a student in 1834 according to the book written by Betty Sisk Shown in the 1860 Census of Habersham County, Georgia. Is Samuel Waldrop also the same man as Isaac Waldrop? They both appear to have the same birth and marriage dates and to the same woman?  YES! Some confusion arose because the original records were not very clear and the initial "I" looked much like an "S". He enlisted 18 June 1862 in Pickens Volunteer's of GA, Army of TN, CSA. He was hit in the right hip 16 May 1863 at Bakers Creek, MS and was captured. This battle is also known as Battle of Champion's Hill. It occurred during the advance of Grant's Army from Jackson, toward Vicksburg. Some data from Felton Waldrep research in 1995. Received copies of his service documentation (FHL 1499527) from Helene Pockrus in February 1996. He served in Co. C, 43 GA Infantry, Pickens Volunteers, Army of TN, CSA. Volume IV of "Roster of the Confederate Soldiers of Georgia, 1861-1865" by Lillian Henderson shows him on page 649 as "Waldrup, Samuel - Private June 18, 1862. Wounded in right hip and captured at Baker's Creek, Miss. May 16, 1863. No later record". CHILD 4 - Perrin (Waldroup) WALDREP His date of death has been reported as January 5 or 6 in either 1863 or 1864 in official records of CSA widows pension papers. Perrin is spelled Perron in some records.He married Miss Mary A. Wilkerson on February 22, 1849 in Habersham County GA according to county records, but marriage license gives 2/19/1849. His name is spelled Perryon Waldrup and her name is spelled Miss Mary Ann Wilkerson on the records shown in Marriage Book B, page 63  for Habersham County GA. (See comments further along about her name). When in the CSA army for training, he became very ill and was sent home while still very ill, walked a long way from the train to get home and died a matter of days later, as reported by family members. His surname was spelled Waldrope in the 1830 census of Habersham County GA and was spelled Waldrup on the marriage records of Habersham County GA. It was spelled Waldroupe or Waldroup at other times. We have used his name as Waldrep to agree with the spelling used by most descendants we have traced so far. He was a member of Providence Baptist Church, joining in 1853. The minutes of the Providence Baptist Church also show other of our family as members. The surname as used in the minutes is spelled Waldroup. He was in Company K; 24th Regiment; Georgia Volunteers, serving under W.Griggs. Search of CSA records at the GA Archives failed to show this unit. The widow's application for pension in January 3, 1902 shows he entered service August 1, 1862 and went home with pneumonia December 22, 1863 where he died. See her notes copied for us by Mimi Jo Butler. 1830 Census Habersham County, Georgia. Marriage License dated 19 Feb 1849, Habersham County, Georgia. 1860 Census Habersham County, Georgia. Member of the Providence Baptist Church, joining in 1853. Enlisted September 18(63?) under W. Griggs, Company K, 24 Georgia Regiment. Died at home of the fever. His date of death was reported as January 5 or 6, 1863/64 in the official records of CSA Widows Pension papers. According to descendants, Perrin became very ill while involved in Boot Training. He became very ill and was sent home. He died a short time after arriving home. Another record reflects that Perrin died 5 May 1863. His name does not appear in the records of Co. K, 24th GA Regiment so apparently he never got out of basic training. Refer to "The Hills of Habersham" written by Mary L. Church of Clarkesville, GA in 1962. From the minutes of Providence Baptist Church in Batesville, GA: In the January 1853 meeting Perrien Waldroup received by experience. The minutes are in the GA Archives as provided by Herbert B. Kinsey. In the book "Once Upon A Time: Schools of Habersham County Georgia,1818-1955" written by Betty Sisk and Ellene Gowder, Page 26 shows that he was 8 years old in 1834, according to records from the GA Archives. His name shown as Paron Waldrup and some siblings are also listed . We use this as basis for his birthdate. This was sent in by Robert Hoyt "Bob" Waldrep in April 1998: Grandfather of Robert McMilian Waldrep wrote:  "Name: Lefaite Waldrep,  D/B: unknown;  Place of birth: Buncom Co., North Carolina; wife's maiden name: Mary Vander; Place of birth: South Carolina";  This refers to Perrin and his wife, apparently, even though records in Habersham County, GA are different.  Records from others in family are basically the same as what Robert M. Waldrep had, but county and state records differ.  We use county and state records.
