Ga Queries Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/Brooks?read=302 Surname: LUMPKIN ------------------------- There is a town called Dahlonega, Georgia, the seat of Lumpkin County, which was named after a Lumpkin family that came from somewhere else in Georgia. I do not know the entire history of it, but the family was quite important and there are numerous records on the internet, and you might even contact the Lumkin County website and get the historian for this area. Good luck... Anyta
