Wife and brother

We should mention his wife and brother. I believe his wife is Martha E.? Brother might have been Edwards.. I believe he was killed in war. FloridaArmy (talk) 21:39, 19 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, "Tat" died in Tennessee of an illness while serving the Confederacy. His findagrave has his picture. Cake (talk) 08:20, 20 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
The news article says Bill was born in Hamilton County, but most genealogy researchers seem to say he was born in Georgia. Cake (talk) 16:51, 20 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Two William H. Kendricks

edit

It looks like his brother named his son after him. That William H. Kendrick also seems to have been notable and influential. How would we differentiate? He was a builder and seems to have been involved in infrastructure projects such as a railway? which one was involved in the plant propagation / canal endeavor (1870 I believ?)? FloridaArmy (talk)

He did. He was a contractor in Tampa. He was born in 1858, so unless he was very precocious, he wasn't doing much in 1870. Cake (talk) 17:41, 20 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
