William (Willie) Lawless Daughtrey

   Another name for William was Lawless.

  General Notes:

See notes on his father, Robert W. Daughtrey, for 1910, 1920, & 1930 census facts.

William Lawless Daughtrey went by the name Lawless ... certainly not an earned nickname in that he was held in high esteem by friends and family.

Quay Baptist Church. Some wonderful person charted the whole cemetery and put it on the web. Robert Walter's next son was William Lawless, Rudolph and Rufus (who were twins) and Elizabeth married last name Hodges. William Lawless married Christine Mason and they had seven boys and one girl. William Lawless was my husband's grandfather. My husband is Robert Lawless Daughtrey.

Hi there! Robert Walter was an insurance agent as was his son Lawless. Unfortunately, I don't believe they made a lot of money selling insurance. Our direct line is:
Robert Walter Daughtrey married Rhoda Emler McClenny
They had five children: Clara Belle (died in infancy), Lawless, twins named Rudolph and Rufus and Elizabeth (married name Hodges). Rudolph and Rufus worked as pharmacists and Elizabeth worked in a bank. Rudolph and Rufus had one daughter each. Elizabeth had no children. Lawless married Christine Taliaferro Mason. Lawless and Christine had eight children. Lawless was my husband's grandfather. His father's name is Robert Lawless Daughtrey. My husband is Robert Lawless Daughtrey, Jr.
