Re: Guerrillas who survived Bill Anderson's admiss

Thank you Gay for sharing this document. Not only does this marriage certificate for William T Anderson Bloody Bill show his true name, but the T appears to be even more meticulously written that the other letters.
This should help clear up any confusion as to whether the T and the L in Lieut. are one and the same. You can click on the link, center the names just so, and compare them side by side in the same frame.
Since Bloody Bill's mother's maiden name was Tomason (or a variation of spelling, such as Thomason)it is possible that could be his middle name, as was that was the custom in those days.
Her parents appear on the 1850 Randolph Co MO census with her and her family, while William C Anderson, later of Brown Co TX who told a local newspaper reporter he was Bloody Bill, appears on the 1850 Taney Co MO census with his totally different family.
Thanks again for sharing this document.
Sincerely.
Fran Bolton
