William T. BOYKIN, "Willie," was born 1854-1855 in Screven County to Barton L. BOYKIN (who was born in Georgia) & Sarah Emily ENECKS (who was born in South Carolina). He lost his father in 1858 and his mother in January of 1860 to typhoid (or another disease). At the enumeration of the census in June of 1860, his sister Emeline BOYKIN, "Em" (born 1841, the eldest of the orphans), still maintained their family household, which included "Willie" and four of their five additional siblings, born 1845-1857:
> John Wesley BOYKIN, "Big",
> Josephine M. BOYKIN, "Jo",
> Virginia Matilda BOYKIN BRYAN, "Jenny", and
> Preston Brooks BOYKIN.
The previous household enumerated that day was that of their uncle, Tobias BOYKIN, who had been appointed administrator for their parents' estates in May of 1860; their remaining sister, Sarah Catherine BOYKIN WILLIAMS, "Mesh", lived in Tobias' household. Later, "Big" lived in the household of another uncle and aunt, John Baptist BOYKIN & Mary Jane ARCHER .

"Willie" was a single farmer, who died on 17 Dec 1923 in the 1676th District of Screven County, with burial in Union Cemetery. The informant for his death certificate was J. W. LEE of Newington.
