Max, I don't think the French girls were siblings. Lydia was the daughter of Robert Emanual French (b. bet. 1784-1794 and d. 1829) and Elizabeth Leavins (b. 1798 and d. 1879). They had three children that I am aware of: Candace (b. 3/15/1820) Lydia (b. 10/2/1823) and Michael (b. 1828). Does anyone have any different information?

That's really neat! Not too long ago, in an old trunk that belonged to Dora Faircloth, I found an original copy of the obituary for Andrew Elton Williams (grandson of the Williams patriarch of the same name). Do you have the date for when Rhoda's obit. appeared? Next time I'm in Holmes County, I'm going to bring a digital camera and sit on that old old OLD microfilm machine and track down some of these obits. There's no copier or anything attached to the machine so that's about the only way to get a copy of these old newspaper articles. > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael S.

Hello All, Does anyone know if these two Leavins-French couples were related anyway? Elisha/Elija Leavins 1813/Ga-1894 that married Lydia French 1825/Ga-1917 And Richmond Leavins Jr. 1821/Ga-1906/Fl that married 1845/Fl Sara Jane "Jency/Ginsy" French 1829/Ga-1908 I think the two Leavins are half-brothers by father Richmond Leavins b. abt.1787/NC, but what about the French girls? Thanks, Max

My family collected obits for many relatives from the early 1920's forward. Although I am sure over the years we lost many, we still have copies of the original articles cut out of the newspaper. At the time, I am sure it was done out of thoughtfulness and in remembrance of those who passed on, but for us now they are a treasure beyond measure. I will try and post any others that I have. Currently I have them all entered on my FTM file so it will be easy.
