- It appears possible that Bonnie's maiden name my be "Destiny" (see Richard Hessler notes below)
Plus 20 Feb 1885 marriage to said HJB, Family Bible record (HJB)
by William H. White JP
I, too, have a copy of the Bishop family Bible you mention. Henry Jefferson Bishop was married to Eliza L. Self (she was previously married to a Mr. Williams). "Mrs." Julia Ann Trollinger was a neighbor/domestic who provided care services to Eliza in her old age. After Eliza died, her son, B.F. Williams (by Eliza's first marriage)gave Julia Ann Trollinger land for services rendered to Eliza before she died. Very shortly thereafter, Julia Ann Trollinger married Eliza's widowed husband H.J. Bishop. Of the three Trollinger children listed, one was my great-grandfather, John Marcus Trollinger. His grandmother was Hulda Trollinger, not Julia Ann Trollinger. His mother's name is believed to be Destiny (???), reputedly an Indian from the nearby Catawba Reservation, but no doubt you've heard that Indian princess story before. I guess "Mrs Julia Ann was the children's mother, maybe their aunt, but must have been someone close to the children. Otherwise why the entry in Mrs. Julia Ann Trollinger husband's Family Bible? Maybe another wife of Albert Bomer Trollinger, but do not know for sure. What I haven't reviewed or found yet are the extant (and available) microfilmed church minutes from the church of the elder, deeds abstracted for the property they owned for which there is/are no deeds of later conveyance, any death certificates that may be available for descendants who died in GA, any Michael or Samuel Trollinger wills filed in NC, or descendant wills filed in GA.

Looking for info about Albert Bomar Trollinger (SC), who sometimes used the name of Bomar MORRISON & esp. 1st wife, who was Cherokee & "left her children with their grandparents & returned to the reservation". Have received info that her Indian named may have been White Cloud but was named "Bonnie" by the whites. One of her children, Nannie Talula Trollinger, was my G-grandmother.
Nannie married Joseph Calvin DAVIS (TN), one of their sons-Berry Clifford Davis (GA.) was my grandfather. He married Cordelia GOINS (KY.). Their daug., Reba Jewell married Louis LAWSON (OH).
