About our family

Tillman Connection

We are direct descendants of Alex Tillman of Hinds, Mississippi; born 1830.  He and his brother, Russell, born 1823 were known as the Herring brothers, a name given to them by their owner Samuel Herring, born 1791.  They took the name Tillman after the Civil War.  This information can be confirmed on Ancestry.com.  Hopefully, someone will do some research and put all the puzzle peices together.
