I found him in the 1848-1849 Cobb County Tax Digest under Powder Springs with 520 acres. However, I cannot find him in the 1850 census. Where did he go? Can someone check the two books of land records in Marietta (975.8245 R2L & 975.8245 R2L v. 2 ) for a land sale around 1849-1850 by Davis Pruett? Can someone check the Cobb County 1840 census book (975.8245 X2w 1840 ) for Davis Pruett? I would really appreciate the help. Attached is a copy of the page of the tax digest showing Davis Pruet.
