Ray (b. 1797, Ga., s/o Chesley Ray and Nancy Ogletree) and Susan Kirkland, b. 1807, Ga. I believe she is descended from the Snoden Kirkland Family. From the 1850 Talledega, Al. Census: Samuel H. Ray, age 52, b. Ga., Susan Ray, age 43, b. Ga., Melissa, age 12, b. Ga., John T., age 6, b. Ga., Lucy Kirkland, age 65, b. Va. It was mistakenly read as Samuel St. Ray in the index. Lucy could have been a Williams. John Thomas was my great-grandfather. Hope this helps. L. Walden

Hello List Members, Thank you to all of those people who answered my query on POSS on the Wilkes and Taliaferro County lists. Miriam Poss Durahm is still living the last I heard in her early 90's in the Durhamtown Communiy of Greene County, Georgia. She is my aunt by marriage. I am trying to put together a little something on her family tree for her. People who replied to my postings say that Lola/Lori was Lora Lee Patterson m. c. 1908 in Wilkes County. Now I need the parents of Henry T. Poss and how many times he was married in an effort to fill in the gap between the 1880 census and the 1900 census. Aunt Miriam was a little "fuzzy" on the details when I saw her last summer. I will be trying to follow up on some of the links various people sent to me. Thanks for you time and more importantly your information. All assistance appreciated. Vivian Cates, Alto, Texas 1900 CENSUS WILKES COUNTY, GEORGIA.

I have the same basic information as you. His son, Eugene (Eugine) R Livingston was my grandfather. I can send you info on his desendants if needed. I have found a reference to Benjamin Palmer Livingston in the Bowles Family Genealogy on Ancestry.com that could be the same person. Some of the facts match but his parents are listed as John Livingston, b abt 1760 and Jane Brown, b 1788 in Georgia. John's father is listed as William Livingston, b abt 1735 and married to Mary (unk). Do you see any connection here or is this a different Benjamin or maybe someone is mistaken? I would appreciate any thoughts you might care to share with me on this. You can reach me at my email address of bheardjr@swbell.net. Thanks, Bryan Heard

Hi, I think that a laptop might be allowed in the reading room. Remember, most documents are 200-225 years old. They are very fragile. If you cannot go in person, the staff can research for you but they do charge a fee. Mary

Can't bring a camera ?...it is so much kinder and the fee for copy does NOT cover the cost. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Graylwolfe@aol.com> To: <GAGREENE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 10, 2005 11:44 PM Subject: Re: [Greene] Fw: RECORDS - 1780 TO 1820 > Hi, You probably should check the GA Archives at Morrow, GA.

My g-g-grandfather James Hammett m. Elizabeth Brooker in GA sometime before 1817. My g-grandfather John Robert Hammett was b. in Wilkes Co. GA in 1817. I find James on the 1850 census in IND Co AR near John Robert & his family, James and 3 females - Mary - age 26, Sitha Matilda age 15 and Elizabeth age 18. Its not clear if Mary is his spouse or child. His first wife, Elizabeth died before 1844, I assume in Alabama. i have not found any other children anywhere. John Robert and his wife, Mary HAMMETT daughter of another James Hammett, had a daughter Savannah.
