This is the tedious part for us all: THE COLONIAL RECORDS OF THE STATE GEORGIA, compiled and published under authority of The Legislature by Allen D. Candler, Atlanta, GA., The Franklin Publishers, Binders. 1908. Obtained as gift, cannot be purchased. (this set has too many volumes and supplements to enumerate) THE REVOLUTIONARY RECORDS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, 3 volumes, compiled and published under authority of The Legislature by Allen D. Candler, Atlanta, GA., The Franklin Publishers, Binders. 1908. Obtained as gift, cannot be purchased. THE CONFEDERATE RECORDS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA, 3 volumes, 3 volumes, compiled and published under authority of The Legislature by Allen D. Candler, Atlanta, GA., The Franklin Publishers, Binders. 1908. Obtained as gift, cannot be purchased. ROSTER OF THE CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS OF GEORGIA, 1861 - 1865, 6 volumes plus index, compiled for the Lake Blackshear Regional Library, Americus, Georgia, by Juanita S. Brightwell, Director, Eunice S. Lee, Assistant Director, Elsie C. Fulghum, Consultant.originally published by The Reprint Company, Publishers, Spartanburg, South Carolina, 1982. Obtained as gift. A LIST OF THE EARLY SETTLERS OF GEORGIA, edited by E. Merton Coulter and Albert B. Saye, The University of Georgia Press, Athens, 1949. Obtained as gift. An explanation is definitely needed about the contents of this last book before I send out any lookups from it. Part I Persons Who Went from Europe to Georgia at the Trustees' Charge Part II Persons Who Went from Europe to Georgia on Their Own Account Appendix A List of the First Shipload of Georgia Settlers In the Introduction is a wealth of pertinent information that will enable us all to make more sense of these listings. Paraphrasing: 21 volumes of manuscripts on early Georgia history were purchased by The University of Georgia in 1947 at auction held by Sotheby's in London. These manuscripts had been "a part of the library of Sir Thomas Phillips, Bt., of Middle Hill, Worcestershire and Thirlestaine House, Cheltenham, and were reported to have originally belonged to the Earl of Egmont, first President of the Trustees for Establishing the Colony of Georgia in America. Much of the material in the Egmont manuscripts" is found in "the official records of the Trustees in the British Public Record Office, from which source 26 volumes have been published by the State of Georgia as THE COLONIAL RECORDS OF THE STATE OF GEORGIA" (note: these are the volumes I just acquired). "Yet there are items of great interest that have never been used by historians, notably the list of early settlers . . ." The name of the settler is followed by the age, occupation (note: in contemporary terminology), date of embarcation, date of arrival, lots in Savannah, lots in Frederica, and "Dead, Quitted, Run Away". "A summary statement at the opening of the manuscript shows that from June 9, 1732, to September 29, 1741, a total of 1,810 persons were sent to Georgia at the expense of the Trustees (note: these were men who had talents/professions that the Trustees thought would aid in the establishment of the Colony), that 1,021 joined the Colony at their own expense, that 142 children were born in the Colony, and that the total supposedly in the Colony on March 4, 1743 was 2,092 (note: after laboring over this addition I decided that my confusion was my failure to compute those who returned home, died or went to Carolina.). In another calculation "Of the settlers sent to Georgia on charity during the first ten years, 45.4% were Foreign Protestants". The following figures will not add up, but will give you a rough idea of the composition. Those sent on charity: 319 are described as Palatine Trust Servants, 47 as Salzburgers, 142 as Swiss, 34 as Germans, 13 as German Trust Servants, 29 as Moravians, 33 as Scots, and 2 as Italians. "No Jews were included in this list, but 92 of the settlers in the list of those who paid their own passage are identified as Jews." The last list in the book: "Of the 114 colonists who sailed in November, 1732, on the Ann (note: or Anne), 29 died within the first year. Within the first ten years, 47 of the first 114 colonists died, and 20 others left the Colony either to return to England or to go to Carolina." Now I will start on the lookups. Dee P.S. If anyone is desirous of the break down of professions and how many persons there were in each let me know.

Hello Dee: I am interested in the Jarrards & Dorseys of White Co GA & the Adams, Fortsons & Gaines of Elbert Co. Also, the Barbers of Meriwether Co. This seems like a tremendous amount of work for you & I would like to reimburse you for your time & trouble. Please post the info on how we might do that. Also, is the record on the early settlers available to the public through any kind of inter-library loan? Thank you so much for this info.

Do you find the name Marable Thanks Karen RESEARCHING: SOWDER, MARABLE, TERRELL, PARRISH, GRAY, PROCHNO, RICH

I have a James Duck b. 19 FEB 1802 in South Carolina by census records and his mother Mary Duck b. est. 1780-1785. James Duck and mother were in Southwestern Mississippi (Amite county area) by 1809 when his mother marries a James Berry. It is possible James Duck was born in Georgia. Any Duck men from late 1700's to early 1800's that you have time to look for. I do not have his fathers name and he appears to have had no other siblings until his mothers marriage to James Berry. Family legend James Duck father came from North Carolina after arriving from Netherlands. Thank you. Mary
