Wayne, Your John Austin family can be found on the Austin Families Assn of America Website www.afaoa.org . You can see it in Family Group Sheet style by going to Austin Research - Southern databases - NC John Austin. Or to see it "book" style go to the Text Document Search - Descendancy Books. When searching on a name in Text, there is one minor annoyance. There is a generation number between the given name and the surname when the person appears in the book as the "head" of his family (for example John1 Austin). Use the asterisk as a wild character to get around this feature (to search for John Austin, enter "John*Austin").The quotation marks are required to just return documents with John Austin and not all of the documents containing Austin or John. Unfortunately, we don't have John's ancestors. Please look it over, if you have any additions/ Corrections, please let us know. To all our Austin family, Recently, there have been numerous updates to our databases, so come take a look, and don't forget the Master Index.

John Austin, born abt 1748 or 1755, died in 1806 in Johnston County, North Carolina, he was married to a Mary. There were several children from their marriage: my direct line is thru his son John Austin born 30 Mar 1774 in Johnston County, NC, died in 1846 in Dale County, Alabama. John married Sarah Youngblodd in 1803 in NC. They moved from NC to Georgia, sometimes after their marriage with several other families. Later after their stay in Georgia and the birth of another couple of children they relocated over into Dale County, Alabama. My particular interest is who was John's (1748-1806) parents, where did they originate from, and John (1774-1846 had a son Green Austin 1807-1847 who is my direct great, great grandfather, but the information is limited on him. Also, I have done the Austin Project DNA and I was wondering if anyone from this line of Austin's had submitted to it? Thanks, very much for any information that someone may have. I will await any replies. Wayne Austin bethwayne@bellsouth.net ------------------------------ To contact the AUSTIN list administrator, send an email to AUSTIN-admin@rootsweb.com.
