    1. [GACOFFEE] Sweat and Hamilton
    2. I am looking for the surnames of Sweat and Hamilton in Coffee Co. A woman by the name of Augusta or Gussie Sweat married a man named Cecil Hamilton.  I would assume that they were born abt. 1913 or so.  They had a son named James E. Hamilton whom was born in 1936 in Broxton GA, and died in 1986 in Coffee Co. Supposedly James E. Hamilton is buried in the Carver Church Cemetery.  I cannot find this cemetery listed in Coffee Co....need help with where it is.... Also - I am wondering if anyone has access to any City Directories that are more recent...This James E. Hamilton had a wife named Lera (Mixon) Hamilton when he died in 1986....however her phone # is unlisted.  I would like to write her a letter or get in touch with this woman desperately..... This James E. Hamilton is my husbands biological father that he never knew.  I have been trying for the last 2 years to find him until I received some info yesterday that gave me what I now know.  This woman Lera Hamilton is my key to obtaining info on my husbands father...or a picture perhaps...if I am lucky.  I am also interested in finding out more about the Sweat family and Hamilton family. If anyone can help me with any of the above I would appreciate it very much. Thank you. Pam - Kansas

    3. Carver Missionary Baptist Church is just south of Douglas. It's just to the west of highways US 221/US 441. According to the Coffee County cemetery book, 1982 edition, the following are buried there: Cecil Hamilton h/o Gussie June 12, 1906/Nov. 15, 1944 Florence Marie Johnson Hamilton w/o Jim H. July 25, 1943/July 26, 1978 Gussie Hamilton w/o Cecil Apr. 6, 1915/Apr. 15, 1941 Jacob Hamilton June, 1854/Mar. 25, 1830 I would assume that Cecil and Gussie had a double tombstone and also that Jim H. and Florence Marie had one. It appears that Jacob has a single marker. There is no female Hamilton listed that is old enough to be Cecil's mom. Clyde
