He was born between 1805 -1815. I know He lived in Georgia, raised his family there and is buried there.There were alot of Vinings who left Ga and went to TX, LA, OK, MISS, ALA. I have been searching for his parents and brothers and sisters for several years now to no avail. I think sometimes Im on the right track with Owen but then I cannot find proof of anything. There are alot of John's. Williams, and Robert Vinings, but I dont ever see an Owen Vining. No one seems to have a child named Owen Vining either. Its like he was adopted or just appeared out of nowhere. I have found some land deeds and land lottery information on Owen Vining, but I want to know who his Parents were......Does anyone outhere have an Owen Vining in their ancestory anywhere? ? Thanks.
