Zillah Haynie was born on 1801 Apr. 28 in S.C. Orphaned at an early age, she and her brother, John Haynie, Jr., were raised by her father's cousin. After marrying Francis Lawson Brandon in 1822, the Brandons and their fast-growing family - there were eventually nine children who reached adulthood - lived in various locations in Ga. In 1847, after several unsuccessful business ventures, the Brandons settled in Cherokee Co., Ala. Four of the five sons fought in the Confederate States Army; two of them were killed. Most of the years in Cherokee Co. were spent in Gaylesville, where Mr. Brandon became a prosperous mill owner.
