Kathy, The Statesboro Library has wonderful indexed census books inckuding the 1870 Census. I will scan a couple of pages of the families surrounding Henry Banks and email them to you. Thanks for your information!

Banks; Martha Banks; Mittie Banks > George, I agree with Smith that Maggie Banks is the same person as Margaret Banks, dau. of Simeon C., Sr. and Martha Streagle Banks. > > As far as Mittie E. Banks, it is very probable that she is the illegitimate dau. of Maggie, however, I believe there are other possibilities within the larger Banks family (I am curious about Lavinia Banks). Just wish we could connect a possible father; (which is why I would be interested in knowing what the 1870 Bulloch census shows as to neighboring families.) I don't have a copy of the census. The census files I previously mentioned were referenced by another Banks researcher. Guess I'll just have to hope some info from a family bible or family letters turns up. > > In the 1880 Bulloch Co. census reference to Henry M. Banks: I believe he is Henry McQueen Banks, son of Cuyler Banks. His wife, I believe, is Martha Clifford, b. abt 1856, GA. I have NFI on Martha Clifford. The Catherine referenced, I believe is Catherine Streagler Banks, wife (or widow) of Cuyler Banks. William & Thaddeous would be Henry McQueen Banks's first cousins and Martha Clifford Banks' brothers-in-law. The reference to Martha "head of family", 38 w/grdau. Mittie age 7: I believe this to be Martha Streagle Banks, widow of Simeon C. Banks. I also believe her age here is an error on the census and should be 58 instead of 38. She was supposedly living next door to Henry Mc Banks, Simeon's nephew. > > The 1900 Bulloch Co. census: Perry Morgan Hodges is my grandfather and his wife is Mittie Eugenia. (You listed "Minnie E.", don't know if that is a typo by you or an error on the census. I have all of the info on Mittie Eugenia Banks & the Hodges family beginning with her marriage abt. 1889 to Perry M.(Toad) Hodges. My father is Charlie Morgan Hodges, child #7 of 8 of Perry & Mittie Hodges. > > So far, I have nothing on Ezra Waters and Maggie Banks. I recently came across Keziah McElveen Flake when I was posting the Wm Emanuel McElveen descendents to my database. Good Luck!
