Notes for: Gillwater ("Tizzie"? / "Gilly") Robertson

John B. Thomas, Jr. of Bloomfield, KY and Silver Springs, MD has written an interesting ten page unpublished biography of his ancestress Gilly. He still owns the Nelson County land on which she lived. Her name may have been written "Robinson." Only the name "Gillie" is found in the records. It is also that used by many descendants.

I think this must be the "Tizzie" Bodine who is mentioned on page 165 as having donated the land where the Beech Fork Methodist Church stands. This is in the book "Historic Nelson County."
