He married, 19th December, 1866, very soon after his settlement in Augusta, Effie Stovall, the daughter of Thomas Stovall of Georgia. Effie Stovall Branch, how- ever, died within six weeks of her marriage, so that by this first wife Thomas Plummer Branch had no issue. Major Thomas Plummer Branch married, second, on the 27th of April, 1871, Annie Irvine, the da...ughter of Reverend Doctor Robert Irvine of Augusta, in Georgia.
