In memory of Milly Bobo Beauford, whose burial site is currently Unknown, her last known residence was Union County South Carolina.

Born in New Prospect Union Co SC, where her family was living in those early years.

Milly married John T Beauford, abt 1817, most likely in Union Co SC, until 1906 no city/town records were kept on marriages, only Church and Bible records, and if lucky an announcement in the local newspaper, of the times.

John T Beauford (JT) is listed as the Estate administrator of Milly's father.
