Thank you for the recent email regarding look ups, etc. I will be sending a request shortly re a Benjamin Medlin and his wife Rosetta. He was born in NC as well as she. Don't know her last name and perhaps if you could look the marriage I could discover his birth date more specifically and her last name. Could you please send me the address for sending questions generally to the group as I seem to not have it right now. I am using a cellular modem and it is expensive to go searching for such things. I wont be online for a while as we are traveling and love to genealogy with the list/group. Thank you in advance. Sue Knudsen

I am hoping someone out there is related to any of these families. William Harvey ROPER (29 Sept 1855-12 March 1923) married his first wife c 1875. I think they married in Cobb Co. Her name was Mary E. maiden unknown. She was born c1859 in GA. They had 3 children who were alive and all married at the time of their father's death in 1923. William and Mary divorceds at an unknown date. These children were: 1. George H. Roper 1876- 2. Cornelia Roper b 1877, married M.C. Ramos and was a resident of Brooklyn, NY in 1923 3. Alice M. Roper b 1879, married V. Wilmoth and lived in Marietta, CObb GA in 1923. These children had half siblings by their father's remarriage. I am trying to track down any descendants, records, photos etc of this family. Regian Roper

I saw on the GA Genweb for Cobb CO where lookups from books by the Genealogical SOciety could be requested by emailing the list. I appreciate this a lot. Could I request the following? Marriage 1. William Harvey Roper to Mary E. _____ about 1875 2. Jeremiah T. Hall to Permilia Josephine Walker c1858/9 3. Nancy Louvinia Hall to William Harvey Roper c1887 Deeds William Harvey Roper Jeremiah Thompson Hall Samuel Walker Thank you sincerely Regina Roper

Would appreciate a lookup for the marriage and ancestry of Benjamin Franklin Morris (1864-1904) to Annie Cora Brewer (1859-1933). I requested and received this info once but have somehow misplaced it. I know the marriage is recorded in the "C" book there. Please tell me if the "C" denotes a marriage of color. Would also like to know where (if other than Cobb County) they were born and names of their parents. Also, I know they had 7 children: Roy Russell (1902-1903), May Belle (1884 - ?), Jesse Allen (1886 - 1904), my grandmother, Maggie Irene (1889 - 196?), Ethrage Grady (1893 - ?), Franklin Paul (1895 - ?), George J. (1899 - ?). Thanks in advance Rae Robinson

Searching for Archie F. Melton born Feb 5, 1872 in Cobb County died July 7, 1949 in Forsyth, Monroe County, GA. He married Lula V. Cape on Jan 3, 1892 in Cobb County and she was born June 2, 1864 in Cobb County and died Oct, 8 1941 in Forsyth, Monroe County. Does anyone have any ideas on how I should try to find his parents? I live in Washington State and from what I can see he is not on SSDI and I have no idea about whether Georgia has marriage or birth certificates from this time period. If anyone happens to have a birth index or marriage index for Cobb county, I would be greatly appreciative for the help. Maybe even a census look up, but since I don't know who his father was I am assuming it would be a problem because it probably only lists "heads of households". Any advice, information or possible ideas greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, Ginger

I am trying to find out if the wife of my Henry L HICKS (b ca 1800/SC) was possibly a Mary STANSELL/STANCILL. The wife who appears with him in all census records is named "Luvica/Luvicy/Luvisa" b 1796/SC. I am wondering if her name could have been Mary Luvisa STANSELL?? She and Henry were in Cobb Co GA from ca 1833 to their deaths ca 1877 and 1880 respectively. They are buried in the Willeo Baptist Cem, Cobb Co GA. I suspect that my Henry HICKS and wife were in 1830/Kershaw Co SC, but cannot confirm yet. Can anyone tell me if my Luvisa could be Mary STANCILL/STANSELL and from where in SC she could have come?? Were there any other STANSELL/STANCILLS from SC in Cobb Co and surrounding areas GA circa 1830s on?? Thanks, April

Try the book FIRST HUNDRED YEARS. It is very good. All of it is about Cobb County.
