Vickers family

See also the Ryall family connections for Isaiah Ryall and Rachel Ann Folsom’s descendants and their marriages into other Barney families.

The Barney Vickers connections run through Edna Vickers, wife of William Raiford Ryall, and a separate marriage between Ruth Ann Ryall and William M. Vickers. The proposed descent from Drewry Vickers through Henry Vickers remains secondary-supported.

Edna’s 1938 death certificate names Henry Vickers and Linnie Bradford as her parents. The William and Edna Ryall dossier follows their household from 1870 onward. Their children include John H., Annie Elizabeth, Hardy Vickers, and Sarah Viola Ryall. John married Libbie Alderman on October 22, 1899; Annie married Edgar Jelks Jones; Sarah married Allen Turner Moody on October 27, 1906. The Ryall family page brings these marriages and household records together.

Ruth Ann Ryall, William Raiford’s sister, is identified in compiled genealogy as William M. Vickers’s wife. The 1900 Hahira census and the later household trail cited on the Ryall page support the couple’s continuity. William M.’s relationship to Edna’s Vickers branch remains unresolved.

Evidence grades

  • Census- or vital-record supported: recent parent-child steps are named or placed in compatible households by census, marriage, death, or comparable records.
  • Secondary-supported: a compiled genealogy supplies one or more early generations while local records independently establish the people involved.
  • Strong probable: the relationship is well supported, but one part of the settler claim still lacks direct settlement-era proof.

Each generation is judged separately. Marriage, surname, proximity, or a shared household does not by itself establish descent.
