Gerald--Thanks for the information! I have done a little research and found that William H. Kelley was the Clerk of the County Court from 1850-1854. George W. Williams was Henry County Probate Judge from 1856-1860. They then disappear as for as holding a county wide office. Apparently the original listing of names copied from the court house records were in a list of witnesses, attests, etc. or as an official signature.--Steve "gc-gateway@rootsweb.com" <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
