By 1860 John REAVES and his family were in Rockdale, Randolph County, AL. John J. REAVES' son John Marion REAVES married Charlotte L. HAYNES (born bet. 1841 and 1849) in 1864. I find a HAYNES family on the 1860 Northern Division of Rockdale, Randolph County, AL. Martha HAYNES age 44 or 46 Female Domestic Housewife $300 $200 born in GA can not read or write Thomas HAYNES age 23 Male Farmer born in GA Joseph HAYNES age 22 Male Farmer born in GA Lotty HAYNES age 19 Female D.

I saw a reference to this church today in the 1838 minutes of the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church in Villa Rica. My ancestor Edward HAYNES was asked to be Moderator at Altoona Church in 1838. Does anyone know if there are records or minutes for this church in the 1830's and 1840's? Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Everyone, I am looking for info. on John J. Reaves born abt. 1826 in Ga. He married Rebecca Hunter (born 1827 in Ga) in 1844 in Carroll County, Ga. John J. and his family are listed on the 1850 Carroll County, Ga. Census Dwelling 1375: John Reeves 24 m GA Rebecca Reeves 23 f GA John M. Reeves 4 m GA Joseph Reeves 1 m GA William Hunter 21 m GA Mary Hunter 22 f GA Rebecca's brother William is also living in the household with his wife Mary Morris Hunter. William and Mary were married in 1850 in Carroll County, Ga. Rebecca and William's mother was Sarah "Sallie" ________ Hunter (maiden name unknown). Sallie is living with them in 1880 and her age is listed as 93 years old. Have not found who their father is. John and his family moved to Randolph County, Alabama something in the late 1850's. 1860 Randolph Co. Census, in Rockdale, Dwelling 188. John Reaves, 33, Farm laborer, b. GA Rebecca, 32, Does house work, b. GA J.M. Reaves, 13, male, b. GA Joseph A. Reaves, 10, b. GA W.T. Reaves, 7, male, b. GA R.H. Reaves, 3, male, b. AL Sarah A. Reaves, 4/12, b. AL On the 1880 Randolph County, AL. Census John says his parents were born in SC. Rebecca says her parents were both born in Ga. but Sallie says she was born in SC and so was her parents. This is confusing! John is buried in the Key Cemetery in Randolph County, AL. I don't have death date. Rebecca died in 1897 and is buried in Union Church Cemetery, Randolph County, Alabama. Any info. on these families would be greatly appreciated!! I am at a stand still on them. Will gladly trade info. Best Regards, Belinda Savadge Jefferson, Georgia savadge@alltel.net http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Bluffs/1079/

My gggg/Grandparents, William and Mary (ORR) BRYCE/BRICE arrived in this country c 1799 from Scotland. They brought two children with them, Mary and Elizabeth. Two children, Agnes and Thomas, remained in Scotland, reason unknown. They settled in Union District, (now Columbia), South Carolina, and had either eight or nine more children. About 1825 they moved to DeKalb County, Georgia, to a villiage later called Ingleside, where they were two of eight co-founders of the Decatur Presbyterian Church. A son, James, b 1806 in S. C., and his wife, Eleanor (R. Sharp), established a store at Harttown, near Atlanta. Another son, John, b 1807 in S.C., married Elizabeth (Heard) and remained in Decatur. By 1827, William and Mary were in Carrollton, Georgia, where, it is assumed, they lived the rest of their lives. I am interested in any info and/or advise on obtaining info in re this family.

Hello, Cousins, The people named below were born and lived in the Carroll, Haralson, Campbell, and Polk County area of GA. I'm searching for anyone doing research on any of these people. Also, I'm searching for Church Records of Antioch Church, Polk Co, GA, and any other Church Records of that area. Can anyone tell me who to contact? I have a copy from a Bible Record, showing that Pinkney A. MCBRIDE and his wife Louveny (STRICKLAND) MCBRIDE are buried at Antioch. Louveny was twin sister of Bethany STRICKLAND, daughters of Roswell STRICKLAND. Children of Pinkney and Louveny (Lovena, etc) (STRICKLAND) MCBRIDE: MCBRIDE: George 1864 (to Shepard, TX) * Martha Jane 1867 (m. Billy BOND) ** William Roswell 1869 (m. 2 times. 1.Rosa Lee PARHAM - 2.CARTER ** James Barney 1872 (m. Mary Rebecca PARHAM) ** Emma Virginia 1877 (m. Lon HUDSPETH) ** Lonzo 1881 (m. Ella WRIGHT ** Reeny (Rena?) 1886 ( mever married) ** John after 1900 (1. Hannah BALDWIN - 2. Mattie MANN) * Buried Polk Co, Cemetery not known. ** Buried Antioch Cemetery, Polk Co. (According to the info. copied from Family Bible and sent to me). I would be delighted to hear from anyone researching any of the above names. I have the list (from census records) of children of Roswell STRICKLAND, although that is not my line. I descend from Pinkney A. MCBRIDE'S sister Mary, who married George CASH. They were my great grandparents. Thanks again for writing. Jean

Looking for any Granger listed in Carroll Co., Ga. TIA, Mollie Charles Pawlik Texas

Thanks for all the information I received from you concerning this line and the power of attorney I submitted. >From this I have determined I am descended from Mary Ann Howard's 1st marriage to John K or W Browning, through their daughter Nancy M. Browning's marriage to James Madison Davis on 9/21/1871 <from Carroll Co., Ga Marriage liscenses 1827-1980>. Yes, finding out the true ancestry of the A.S. Cartwright mentioned in the power of attorney will still need to be figured out. I am also interested in any other information you might have on Mary Ann Howard or J.M. Davis's ancestry. Thanks, Mike mwcobb@earthlink.net
