    3. Rebecca, I checked the index of Brooks County Georgia-Echoes of its People for the names of Ola McALISTER and Cassie GREENE. This is what I found for Ola McALLISTER (note, there were two L's) in the index: Pages 89 and 90, Sand Hill Community (Sand Hill Schools)--Excerpts from Article by Leona Copeland. "...Central School appears to have been organized about 1894, located between the Wallace Peek and Raymond Gay families' homes. Moody Griffin and Vernon Elmore remember their teachers, sisters Ola and Agnes McAllister. One teacher was in charge there a term; then the other sister would teach a term, only five or six months of school. Both these men remember when Sand Hill was built, four nice rooms and large front porch, with side entrance to the two rooms in the back part of building..." Index states: Page 315, ? McAllister was 2nd m. for Elizabeth RAMSEY, b. 1830. Page 90, Agnes, and Ola, Page 4, Asa F., Page 112, Chrysterbell, Lorenso, Modena, Roy, Will, and Winifred. Let me know about the other McALLISTER names. If they are yours, I'll let you know what I find on those pages.
