Does anyone of this list have access to 1850 Census of Montgomery County? If so I would sure appreciate a lookup for: MCGREGOR, Duncan MCGREGOR, Daniel Thanks, Nancy

Man...That sounds good to me! Pot liquor, for you yankees out there, is turnip green juice. You crumble your cornbread in it and eat it like soup. Judy

Judy, You know that the cornbread gets crumbled into the "pot licker" and the "hot vinegar pepper sauce" gets cooked in the greens. A side order of baked yam, dripping with butter and some BBQ'd ribs with Johnny Harris BBQ sauce is the way we do it at our house................yummy!!!

Don't forget the pepper sauce to go on the greens. Wonder how many of y'all know what pot liquor is? (How did we get from tombstones to turnip greens?) Judy

Anything good enough you wanted to lick the pot to get it all.......... ----- Original Message ----- From: <JodieK444@aol.com> To: <GA-ROOTS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, August 07, 2000 8:51 PM Subject: Re: Fw: [GA-Roots] Reading tombstone inscriptions > Don't forget the pepper sauce to go on the greens.

Gerald, you need to copy the file to the new drive. Right click on the name of the file in windows explorer and on the menu will be "properties" at the bottom. Probe properties and at the bottom of this menu are the boxes "read only", "hidden" and "archive". The read only box will be checked and all you need to do is uncheck it. I don't know of a reason to have to check a box again but if you do, use archive as hidden will hide the file.

You'd better believe it's an emergency, because when Judy comes by my house and I've prepared greens, we'll need some of her cornmeal for, thin crispy pan fried cornbread................a taste of that combination and you'll know why so many fine, smart folks have come from Georgia. :-)))

It might be a long drive, but I wanna know where you people LIVE? I only get to eat that good when I visit my aunt! ear

Does anyone know a website that has this form? Not on the NARA site. Thanks. Lynda

Addison Baxter Smith (if that was his real last name) was born in McDuffie/Warren Co. GA in 1856. He attended college in Carrollton, GA. He married Martha Morrow in Cherokee Co. NC. A.B. was a Baptist minister who preached in Cherokee Co. NC where he died in 1928. His mother's maiden name was Rowena Lazenby. He is buried in Cherokee Co. NC. Some of his cousins were named Storey in GA. Any leads appreciated on what his real last name might be. Lynda Wilson

>From its early founding days, Georgia kept tax records. Three copies were made each year. One was kept by the county tax commissioner (not sure of title), one was sent to the state tax commissioner and the third was kept by the county (not sure where). These tax records are valuable in locating an ancestor who does not show up on census records. The early 1900's lists contain names of war between the states veterans in the front of the book. They have NOT been abstracted nor on the net. They have been microfilmed and both originals and microfilm can be found at the Georiga Archives. Depending on the size of the county, there can be 3 or more years to one roll. I looked at them this weekend. The early 1900's books have 36 columns across two pages. They indicate race, occupation, acreage, value, value of personal property, if they owned watches, cattle, wagons, crops., etc. and their value. Only heads of households were listed - NO family members. Lynda
