    3. Volume III has the Cedar Springs Cemetery, the Sowhatchee cemetery, several cemeteries that are beside churches in the Cedar Springs area and possibly other cemeteries. Mrs. Whitehead has written articles of interest which covers her lifetime.......There are numerous geneologies and I believe a section on Damascus. It is a very informative book for all people with ancestors in Early County.......Only the census' covers the entire originial county that was once Early County, including Seminole(have their own book) Miller County(has it's own book, contact the chamber of commerce or library in either town), Decatur county was once Early County, Baker was broken off early on from Early County, Calhoun County was broken off from Early County and parts of Clay County, Ga. broke off from Early County.......Seminole was the last one, 1920.......All of these counties now have their own history books, The present day Early County, covers Cedar Springs, Jakin, part of Arlington, Blakely, of course, the county seat and Hilton and Saffold area, which is the lower part and includes the Naval Confederate Yard. This new book tries not to cross over into the parts of Volume I and VOlume II......They can be obtained by contacting John Edmondson--Pine Circle--Rt. 2--Blakely, Ga. 31723---Send 10.00 for volume I and 18.00 for volume II==include 6.00 postage. Make check to the Early County Historical Society.......If all else fails contact me or the Blakely/Early County Chamber of Commerce.........Joan Herndon
