Good evening, I have been reading some of your mail over the internet. May I ask what kind of book or census do you have of Gilmer Co., Ga. I am hunting some GADDIS that should have been in the Ellijay area, I know in 1863. my husband 's grandfather was born maybe in Lumpkin Co., around that time and moved into Gilmer Co. We can not find any thing on them so it is very hard to tell. Any help will be appreciated. William L. Gaddis born 1863 or 64, <<We have found on one census they had Wm. A. Gaddis >> he also had a sister Eve or Evline Gaddis that married a William Wesley Dockery, and lived in Ellijay and died there. When her husband died she married a Letterman. But when she died they buried her by Wm. W. Dockery. Any help would be appreciated, we live in Alabama so it is so hard for us to come and try to find things. Thanks and have a very good week end. psueg@bellsouth.net Peggy Sue O'Shields-Gaddis ----- Original Message ----- From: "patnj" <patnj@gateway.net> To: <GAGILMER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2000 7:17 PM Subject: [GAGILMER-L] Ross family > Lois, > > Here's some more: > Book 1 > page 61 > > PAGGET, Perry M./Cyntha M.
