William Nathaniel Webb was born in April of 1878, in Itawamba County, Mississippi.  He was the first child of David Dee Webb and Nancy Ann Ford.  He grew up in the Clay Community and he eventually married a girl from nearby, Arvilla Stone.

"Willy Nat" as he was known, had eight children with Arvilla.  The census in 1920 caught them still in Itawamba County:

1920 Itawamba County, Mississippi Census
Beat 5, Clay Precinct;  House #209
William Webb 42
Arvilla 34
Winnie A. 16 Dau.
Alva A. 13 Dau.
Eula L. 10 Dau.
Arvie L. 8 Dau.
Vanda A. 6 Girl
Elmo S. 4 2/12 Son

At some point after this, the family moved to the Mississippi Delta to farm.  None of the family in Itawamba County remembered where exactly they wound up though.  Willy Nat was a sharecropper, so there is a chance that they moved around a lot.  One of the most notable things about this family is that all five of Willy Nat's girls, daughters of a sharecropper in the Delta, received college educations!  

Willie probably died before 1957, but we know next to nothing about the line after that.  

Winnie A. Webb (md. ?)
     We know virtually nothing about Winnie.

Flavia A. Webb (md. ?)
     It was thought that Flavia was a schoolteacher.  She may be the Flavia Jones that died in Neshoba County, Mississippi in 1982, but this is not known for sure.

Eula Lois Webb (md. ?)
     Eula Lois is thought to have moved to Philadelphia, Neshoba County, Mississippi.

Arvie L. Webb (md. ?)
     Arvie married a man who was the postman for Durant, Holmes County, Mississippi.  Arvie worked in the post office there.

Vonda A. Webb (md. ?)
     Vonda was said to have been the "State Dietician" for Mississippi and that she lived in Jackson.  Nothing else is known about her.

Elmo S. Webb (md. ?)
     Nothing else is known about Elmo.

Nelson Webb (md. ?)
     Nothing else is known about him, though he was NOT the Elmo Webb who died in Greenwood, Mississippi, in 1982.

Opal Webb (md. Mr. Fields)
     Opal was a schoolteacher in Rosedale, Bolivar County, Mississippi.  She had a daughter, that is supposed to be living in Pensacola, Florida, named Billie, but all attempts to contact her have failed.
