Thanks to all about the division of Early Co. Looks like the family stayed put and the border's moved from underneath them, with them ending up in Miller Co, GA. Researching William T Tiner/Tyner family. He purchased land in 1848 in Baker Co. Children were Lewis and William Wright (who both came to TX after the civil war, John (who married Georgia Ann Williford), Benjamin (who married Mary Lucretia Sheffield) and Ida (who married James Kelly). Need to find out who William's parents were. John Tiner found in 1830 and 1840 is not his father. Possible father is James who married Mary Fannel. Possible brother is Simson (Simeon) and sister Lebram who married William R King.
