Obituary Online notes for Andrew SOMERS
47y 11mo 9d"He was a member of the M.E. Church"[Methodist Episcopal]Sometimes the family name is spelled "Summers" in records.

If I am correct, Andrew married Mary Swift of Caswell County in 1833.

By 1836 he was married to "Julia" and had a child; it is possible Mary died between 1833 and 1836.

According to the 1850 census, he and Julia had the following children:
Jane (1836-?
William (1838-bet 1910 and 1920)
Pinckney (1840-1912)
Margaret (1844-1922 Ware)
Elizabeth (1846-?)
Rosannah (1849-?)

In the 1860 census, Julia is living with the children above (except Jane, who either died or got married), plus: Julia (1851-? Eliza Caroline (1853-1918 Ware) and William's wife Elizabeth

Neither mother Julia nor daughter Julia appear in further censuses. 470, Andrew Somers
