Note: The transcript of this record incorrectly lists "Senisa" as "Louisa". Also, in the 1860 & 1870 U.S. Census William Randal listed his place of birth as Georgia. So this census was probably in error when it listed his place of birth as South Carolina.</WRAP>



After Senisa died, William then married Emily Akins (1819 - 1892)((http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=144071127)) on Oct. 6, 1853 in Franklin, County, Georgia.((http://genealogytrails.com/geo/franklin/marriages1853-1856.html))((http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gafrankl/marriages/wgroomr.html))

William and Emily had the following children:
  - [[john_w_randall|John W. Randall]] (June 23, 1855 - Sept. 24, 1906)((http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=73463448)) 
  - Thomas W. Randall (1860 - 1892)
