Ephraim was married three times and was a soldier with the CSA at the Siege of Vicksburg.
Ephraim 1st married Sarah Abigail Poston on 06 Feb 1851 in Marion County, South Carolina. She was born 12 Nov 1832 in Marion County, South Carolina and died 06 Sep 1861 in Catahoula Parish, Louisiana, of yellow fever as did five of her six children, only son John survived the epidemic between 1859-1862.
Ephraim 2nd married, I believe her name was Sarah J. Mulky, and they had a child born soon after Ephraim entered the War. Sarah was told Ephraim was seen dead on the battlefield and she acquired another husband and had a child. Following parole, Ephraim arrived home and family discussion supported his wife's re-union.

1 Lucy D. Tilton
2 James D. Tilton
3 Martha Matilda Tilton
4 William Ryals Tilton
