    3. More from Anita Cole Dear Mr. Baumbach, I emailed you from my sister's back in October. I am finally online. One source of my information was a book by Groves Harrison Cartledge titled Historical Sketches Presbyterian Churches and Early Settlers in Northeast Georgia. It is available through the Madison County Georgia Historical Society. Groves was born in 1820 so he remembered Steven Groves, his grandfather. William Fergus died in 1819 so he had no personal remembrance of him. He did know the maiden name of William's wife, Armstrong. When I went to York, South Carolina, I found a deed that says, "I, William Fergus, and my wife, Margaret. So from these two sources concluded that his wife was Margaret Armstrong. That's about all I know about her. I don't know when or where they married. I have found several distant relatives in my area who are interested in our history and have done some research. We plan to get together in March and compare notes. Two of them have said they have quite a bit of information about the Fergus family. If there is anything documented and new about John Fergus, I will send it on to you. Sincerely, Anita Cole
