Hello listers, I researching my family in Appling County. In the course of my search, I came upon a hand-written Book of Genealogies, Appling County on a microfilm at the LDS family history center. There are supposed to be 2 or 3 volumes to this book. I have only found one. The book was printed and bound by Foote & Davies Co, in Atlanta, GA. Is there such a Company still in existence today and if so, can I reach them? Janet Nebraska

You can't seem to go to Georgia and look up a name. You have to go through more links than Jimmy Deans sausage! I'm looking for information on my grandparents who lived in Woodstock, Georgia. However, I'm not sure where they were born. I think my mother was born in Marietta, GA. I'm actually trying to trace their roots so have to start somewhere. My grandfathers name was William D. Latimer and my grandmother was just known to me as "Miss Molly". Where can I find some help and records??
