Thanks, Janie! I have started looking slowly look at Waters, Walters, Watrous, etc. families in GA--as varied spelling of Waiters. I'm trying to find a family in 1850 with a 10-year-old son named William Amos, or in 1860 find a 20-year-old Wiliam Amos. So far, I haven't had any luck. Thanks so much for checking Waters Gwinnett Co 1860 for me! I appreciate it. Surely, William Amos Waiters can't stay hidden forever!!!
