Notes from Marty Ramage, 4218 Ridgemont Dr., Belden, MS 38826:
"I have received a letter from a Tommie Lacavera where he said that Bailey was also married to Lewtishy (Littitha) Adair. I have found no reference to this, but I have wondered if Tabitha could have been a nickname for Lewtishy (Littitha)? Mr. Lacavera said Lewtishy was buried in the Adair Cemetery on the west side of Victory Road near Carrollton, Georgia. Lewtishy Adair Estes was a daughter of George Adair of DeKalb County (now Fulton County), Georgia. George Adair gave Lewtishy land in Carroll County in 1871 and the cemetery is near the house where the Estes family lived."
