NOTES:
According to Abbie DILLARD, H.C. BAILEY's obit states that he was
born in Twiggs Co. GA.
H.C. spent much of his life in Americus, GA, where he was a
pharmacist and owned a drug store. According to family members when
the Civil War
broke out he became a doctor at the nearby Andersonville Prison,
reportedly along with his brother Wellburn (Wellborne) BAILEY. Pension
records have been found for Wellburn but as yet I have not found an
official record of H.C.'s work at the prison. There is some indication
that the parents of H.C. were from North Carolina, but an official
record has not yet been found. An official record of military
service has not yet been located but
in the book "History of Sumter Co." there is a letter by Lt. HEYS,
a member
of the Sumter Flying Artillery, which refers to a "Dr. BAILEY who was
being discharged". After the war H.C. developed asthma and was forced
to leave
Americus for health reasons, going first to Cartersville, GA, and later
to
Acworth, GA. Frances Mary (BAILEY) BOSWORTH is buried in Oak
Grove Cemetery in
Americus. H.C. owned a burial plot in that cemetery but he himself
is
buried in a family plot in the Liberty Hill Cemetery in Acworth, GA.
Willie M. (MC DOWELL) BAILEY and Kate GOOD co-authored a book, "The
History of Cobb County" published about 1960, now out of print. Willie
was also Vice President of the state General Federation of Women's
Clubs. Her husband, Eugene, (Dr. Gene), was a medical doctor in Acworth
and Atlanta for many years.
According to Jeff BOSWORTH, H.C. had four stillborn children, all
buried with Frances BOSWORTH in grave #72 in Oak Grove in Americus.
Dovrannah (BAILEY) MAYO was my grandmother. The MAYO family lived
in Americus for many years.
