    1. [GAFRANKL] Camerons

    3. Looking to connect with any Cameron descendents living in Banks or Franklin County. As far as I have been able to discover, the only Cameron family in Franklin (bef. 1858) and Banks (aft. 1858) was the family of Duncan G. Cameron (born abt. 1795 in Scotland) and his wife Nancy Winters (born abt. 1805 in NC) Duncan and Nancy were married on May 5, 1822 in Orange County, NC. The couple moved to Franklin County before the birth of their first child in 1823 and had at least 9 children there. 1) William A. Cameron (b. 1823), m. Mary Pair in Franklin Co. on Sept 12, 1844. No further information, may have emigrated to Texas. 2) Catharine Cameron, (1826- abt. 1866), m. John Little Ingram in Franklin Co. on Feb 22 1845. Lived in Union Co., GA 3) Theresa Cameron, known as Thursey. (b. 1829) Listed on the 1850 Franklin Co., census as being an idiot. 4) Unknown Male Cameron (b. abt. 1831), probably the Sloan Cameron found enumerated with brother Alvin in Co. K of the 52nd GA Vol. Infantry. D. 1862. 5) Wiley Cameron (1836-1911), m. Sarah. Bur. Naomi Cemetery, Walker Co, GA. 6) Valentine Cameron (1837-1924), m. Nancy Wall. Served in Co. F of the 30th TN Infantry. Bur. Naomi Cemetery, Walker Co., GA 7) Alvin D. Cameron (1838-1863), m. Rebecca. Captured at Vicksburg in 1863. Will probated in Franklin Co. 8) Mary Cameron (b. 1839). No further information. 9) Sarah E. Cameron (1844-1911), m. J.P. Ayers in Franklin Co. on July 27 1865. Bur. Homer Presbyterian Church Cemetery, Banks Co, GA Duncan was listed his profession on the 1850 Franklin Co. census as tailor. He was listed there with a woman named Sarah, who is either a second wife or the proper name of Nancy Winters. (I have been unable to discover which is correct.) They were listed with another child, Thomas T. Cameron (b. 1847), m. Elizabeth. Duncan is not enumerated in the census indexes for GA in 1860. I have not been able to find him in any other states, so he probably died between 1850 and 1860. (Sarah Cameron is enumerated in Franklin Co. in 1870 in a pauper's home. Another indication that Duncan had died previously.) Would love to correspond with anyone who has information on this elusive family.
