No, Gil, this is the same Odian Castleberry who was in Dade County for a short time. He moved over into Walker County and it is believed he died there. He first moved into the McLemore Cove area (aka Fricks Gap on earlier censuses) then (I think) over in the Rock Springs area. Could be wrong about that. Betty Johnson, head of the local history and genealogy dept at the LaFayette Library, in LaFayette, GA., is also researching Odian Castleberry. We were talking about him this past Saturday.

In an earlier post I gave the link to Researching Southern Claims Commission Records. When I was looking at the site, I saw under the GA listing of claims, Odian Castleberry. The entry was: Odian Castleberry; claim number 16791; County of Walker (so might be a different Castleberry); and number of fiche on this name, 1.
