You've probably seen this census information and dismissed it, but it's worth another look: June 7, 1860, Cumming, Forsyth County, Georgia Page (looks like) 24 Household 171, family 171 C. Holbrook, farmer, 59, born in GA Sarah, 46, born in GA Mary, 19, born in GA Columbus, 16, born in GA Frances, (age is indexed as 12, but handwriting comparison sure looks like 17, there's no loop that is characteristic of the other 2s on the page) If she is 17, this is very possibly your Frances. In 1850 this same family was in Forsyth County and Frances was shown as age 5: August 10, 1850, 31st District, Forsyth County Household 138, family 138 C. Holbrook, 49, farmer, born in GA Sarah, 44, born in GA William, 18, born in GA Russell, 16, born in GA Harriet, 15, born in GA Robt, 12, born in GA Mary, 10, born in GA Columbus, 8, born in GA Frances, 5, born in GA W.

I have ran across the 1850 census with this family but not the 1860. On the 1900 Faulkner Co, AR census, Frances Holbrook has her mother listed as born in South Carolina and her father in GA. Guess the South Carolina birthplace for her mother has stuck in my head and that's what I've been banging against every wall I've came across. I have tried as best I can to run down any of Frances siblings listed on the 1850 census in hopes of running across something or somebody else researching this family and have came up empty handed. Thanks so much for your help and if you or anyone else comes across any marriages, burials or a general idea where the aliens picked them up at ... I and my family would be most grateful. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mccollumw@comcast.net> To: <GACHEROK-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2004 11:34 AM Subject: Re: [GACHEROK-L] Holbrook/Naylor/Duke > You've probably seen this census information and dismissed it, but it's worth another look: > June 7, 1860, Cumming, Forsyth County, Georgia > Page (looks like) 24 > Household 171, family 171 > C.
