Okay, here's my "new and improved" data on Zachariah SCREWS. Additions, corrections, comments, etc., would be heartily welcomed! Carol First Generation 1. Zachariah A. "Zack" SCREWS, son of James SCREWS and Martha �Patsy� HALL was born on 20 Apr 1850 in Georgia. He died on 9 Sep 1928 in Emanuel Co., Georgia. He was buried in Moxley Cemetery, Swainsboro, Georgia. He was listed as "Zaccheus" on the 1850 Emanuel County Census, but as "Zachariah" on the 1860 Emanuel County and 1870 Jefferson County Censuses. Emanuel Co Marriage Records 1817-1903: Zachariah Screws, to Elis Kersey 06/25/1867 by E. Rhyner, MG. Lydia's tombstone gives her date of birth as Aug 12,1860, but Census records show she was born about 1855. According to the 1900 Census, she was born Feb 1854. Zachariah apparently had 2 sons named George, one by each wife. Is this correct? 1850 US Census: Emanuel Co., GA - District 28, Family 130: SCREWS, James 33, b.

Carol, I haven't asked this question before, but have wondered how you and other researchers who have posted this family concluded that Zachariah and Elizabeth had a daughter named Sarah, especially since the family cannot be found on a census together? Just wondered. Olivia
