The books to which you are referring I found in the Brunswick Library. They are the works of Elizabeth Evans Kilbourne. The Georgia Genealogical Society has her email address as kilbourne21@comcast.net I don't know if that is current or not. The last info I had was they were $40 per volume. I requested our library here in Jacksonville to order them, but nothing yet.
