Daughtrey (Jan 1882 - VA/VA/VA) boarding in the home of Zachery Holland (Jan 1836). Willie is a farm laborer. This may or may not be our William Thomas Daughtrey; but this researcher can find no other individual in 1900 that is possible. The WWI Draft Card record below gives a A. T. Daughtry as a relation but this researcher can find no record of a connection that would make a connection.
