I have left the spelling of the name of the Mullinix/Mullinax spelling as it was in the genealogy from which I imported them. This is an example of the variation of names that shows up everywhere in this line until recent decades in the same family.

I find it interesting, if not suspicious, that four of these children have the middle initial of G. But John S, Jr, also named a son John Gaines. I suspect the middle name in some if not all these other cases is Gaines, Alsey Mary Mullinax's maiden name. Several Gaines and Mullinaxes married each other in at least two generations.

Most sources lack any middle initial for John and his son. One Mullinax genealogy lists them as John S Mullinax, but does not cite a source. Sarah Mullinix mentioned in correspondence on this question that she has not found any original documents that show any middle initial for either of these.
