Hello, I am new to the list having just tracked down some relatives to Bibb and then Elbert Counties. Someone in Bibb County sent me a marriage index listing for Elbert County for the relatives I am looking for. They are as follows; MEMORY THORNTON (b 1810 - d 1879) + POLLY HIGGENBOTHAM - married Feb 9, 1831, Elbert County one child (my gr grandfather) SIMEON C. THORNTON was born 1846 in GA died 1925 in Memphis, TN - buried in Coldwater, Tate Co., MS. If anyone has anything on these folks or any other Thorntons in the area I would love to hear from you to exchange information. A lookup on the 1850 Elbert County census for this family would be very helpful if anyone has access to the census record. Thanks for any help you might offer. Rob Ayres
