    1. Re: [CREEK-SOUTHEAST] SC Indians to GA on to AL
    2. Tim Timothy
    3. Very familiar with Ninety Six, SC. Sold insurance there and was at one time a mill town. I wanted to see if I could trace some steps of the Dees and Timothy's that apparently came out of SC. I saw where some of my Dees had been born in GA and my great great grand daddy, Jessie Dees was listed as being born, along with his wife, in SC. I thought I might look on the internet for the common county in GA for possibilities, or when can, go in person to see their files. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, August 08, 2008 12:37 PM Subject: Re: [CREEK-SOUTHEAST] SC Indians to GA on to AL > > In a message dated 8/8/2008 11:26:06 A.M.
