Notes:

From the "History of the First Baptist Church, Summerfield, FL.":
Marie, the eighth and youngest child of J.D. and Emma, was baptized in 1924. Thornton B. Mills, Marie's husband, moved his church letter from Wildwood and was ordained a deacon in 1944. He served as postmaster in Summerfield for 22 years. He knew everybody in town and on the routes. Plus in the 40s and 50s Thornton operated a grocery store housed in the same building as the post office. (Today this building is on the corner of S. E. 147th St. and 70th Court, once White's furniture.) Anyway, what an advantage for a good Baptist to witness which Thornton did. He was one of the first persons newcomers would meet and he would invite them to church. Marie has been active in all organizations, especially with W.M.U., and would take on Thornton's responsibilities when he was unable. He was the Sunday School Superintendent and later the treasurer for years. Their four daughters Gertrude (McCormick), Emma (Tedder), Darlene (Perryman), Sonya (Carroll) and son Bill Mills were baptized at FBCSF.

Thornton married Angie Marie PROCTOR on 30 Jul 1933. Angie (daughter of James Dillon PROCTOR and Emma Jane CARUTHERS) was born on 16 Jun 1918; died on 6 Dec 2017. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
