Surnames: KIRK Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/4c.2ADE/1649 Message Board Post: Am looking for a John Kirk, born about 1790 in NC. He moves to GA in the early 1810s (possibly Hall or Jackson counties). The name also shows in a Gwinett county record, but I'm not sure if that's the same guy. Has ten children by his first wife (name unknown)--Eliza, Susan, Thomas, Mary, Robert, John Jr, Andrew Jackson, Melissa, Francis (Frank), and Jasper. Moves to Cobb county in 1837, marries an Emily Eubanks, and then has 7 kids by her--Malinda, Lucinda, Julia Ann, James, Martha, Samantha Emily, and Laura Elizabeth (there must not have been much to do after dark back then!). John and Emily both die in late 1864, soon after Sherman moves through Cobb county (would love to know more about this episode also). Any help would be appreciated. [email protected]

I have a mystery with my KIRK family also. I wonder if there is any connection? I have a William G. Kirk b. 12 Jan. 1817 in TN married Rhody Catherine Holtzclaw 4 Dec. 1844 in Tallapoosa Co. AL The only child I have for this couple is my great grandfather, Joseph Green Kirk b. 19 Dec. 1848 in AL. Tallapoosa Co. AL is one county west of the Georgia border and in the middle of the county. It is not to far from Hall & Forsyth Counties GA. Do you think there may be a connection? sheryl -----Original Message----- This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
