I have information on the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church which I will look up and post here. It held its first meetings in my ggg grandfather's home, Jonathan Haynes. Several of his brothers were Primitive Baptists ministers. Previous to the founding of the New Hope Baptist Church in Carroll County, they had founded New Providence Primitive Baptist Church in Habersham County, GA. The Haynes family had just migrated from Haywood County, NC. If you think your ancestors were part of this migration, I can give you information on it. Jonathan Haynes stayed in Carroll County but his brothers moved on to Arkansas and Texas. Jonathan was married to Cynthia McDowell, daughter of Daniel McDowell who also migrated with this family. Other families known to have come from NC to Habersham County and then on to Carroll County were Kinney, Palmer, Owens, and maybe Ward. This comes from some work done on the Haynes family by William Edgar Haynes, presently residing in California: quote "They (the Haynes brothers Henry, Jonathan, Edward and William), along with others, came together to form the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church. Minutes of the meetings are on file in the Genealogy Section, Carrollton, Georgia Library. On September 24, 1830, Jonathan was appointed to a committee to purchase land for a new meeting house. He was elected as a trustee and as a brothers to assist in laying the new church's foundations on November 27, 1830. According to the minutes, the committee did not get the job done and some harsh (but polite) words were exchanged. The outcome was that the new church, named New Hope, was built east of the town that is now known as Villa Rica, Georgia, near the present-day Atlanta Highway US-78, and the old Pumpkintown Road crossing. The church was still active in 1996. The church must not have been completed by February 1, 1834, because church services were held at Jonathan's home. This was the last entry of Jonathan's name in the church meeting minutes." end quote Since the church was still active in 1996, it might still be active today. A search for an address and telephone number on the internet might be helpful and you could talk with the church. They may have a published history being such an old church. You could also contact the Nova Lomason Library and leave a message for the genealogy department to see if they would send you copies of the minutes for particular years, etc. The genealogy department is not open all the time so it might take a while to get a response but I bet they would help you. When I visited the library, they were wonderful and very helpful. Cathy M. Casper Sanford, NC

Could someone who has the Carroll County 1860 census look for: Parmar, Joshua Appears in 1870: Parmer, Joshua 68 m w farmer SC $300 - $200 Sarah E. 27 w f keeps house GA Ellen 6 w f at home Charlie 3 m w at home John 1 m w I'm pretty sure Sarah E. is the daughter of RVC Ruffin. But with this BIG age difference, I wondered if Joshua might have been married before. In 1860 Sarah is 22 and living with her parents and other siblings in the Villa Rica district.. Household #88. Thanks for the help... also if anyone has a Marriage Record Book, perhaps they would be kind enough to look up Joshua Parmer as well. Carroll County Genealogical Society appears to have published so many things over the years. They must be a wonderfully active group!! Virginia

please reply to the list if someone has the answer--I am interested too!!

Does anyone have any idea how I could get my hands on a copy of this study? Or does someone have a copy who could do lookups?

I am very interested in this study. Does anyone happen to know a url or where I could find out more information about this! That's a fairly recent Hi,

Hi, In 1996-7 I was researching in the Carroll County area and discovered a Research Study being conducted by a "Mr HOUSE" at the Western Georgia University in Carrollton, GA.

I'm interested in the Villa Rica area (before the Civil War).... Especially the New Hope Primitive Baptist Church. Does anyone know of the years of its existence and if any records are available for it? My research is on R.V. C. RUFFIN who was Justice of Peace and also a Miller from late 1840's to 1870....and his descendants... Thanks.. Virginia

Virginia -- I have heard these records exist. I believe a copy is with the West GA (something). Unfortunately, my source for this information is having some health problems right now and I don't want to bother her. ???Any one else have any leads on exactly which "West Ga _______" collection they might be part of ??? You might try: West Georgia Regional Library/ Neva Lomason Memorial Library 710 Rome Street Carrollton, GA 30117 (770) 836-6711 or the university library at: State University of West Georgia 1500 Maple Street Carrollton, GA 30117 (770) 836-6500 Maybe one of them will have it in their special collections.

Last call for book orders: Sept. 5, 2000! If you (the subscriber to Polk Roots web list) miss that deadline, you will a) not get a book, or b) it will cost at least $10. more!

Sorry, folks.I got all excited and e-mailed the coordinator. The book order was for Polk County..not Carroll County. (I should have read the subject line more closely.) There is no Carroll County book either in production or competed by Heritage books for Carroll County, Georgia. Darn!! Judy in Newnan

Hi -- There was a follow up done later on to the original cemetery book. The local FHC I use has both the original book on microfiche, as well as the follow up. What I have is as follows: "Carroll County Cemeteries -- First Supplement" Compiled by Myron W. House Carrollton, Georgia: Carroll County Genealogical Society Carroll County Historical Society 1987 It has an index to the cemeteries, corrections, additions, additional cemeteries, additional corrections, and Surname & Maiden-name Index. The page numbering picks up where the original left off, so the supplement starts with page 900. To order through LDS Library from Salt Lake, it is microfiche #6010667 The original cemetery survey is on microfiche #6048749 Valerie (Johnson) Freeman Santa Ana, California Researching: Nixon in GA/AL Lochbaum/Laughbaum in PA/OH Cherry in MD/PA/OH/IA/NE
