Can someone tell me if any Harris County books have been published on deeds about 1840 to 1860 period in this county or cemetery records other than the History of Harris Co., GA by Barfield? What publications are being printed or sold for purchase if any and where to obtain them...is there no longer a genealogy society in this locale? TXJEAN Working on Middlebrooks, Garners, Whitesides, Selmon, Williamson, Buice/Grice/Stanton/Sutton/Lyon and others of NC to SC and GA...into MS and TX. Thanks TXJEAN

I am posting this to warn others about problems with ; Census Microfilm Expeditors 476 E. South Temple , Suite 4 Salt Lake City , UT 84111 website ; www.censusmicrofilm.com e-mail ; [email protected] and ; [email protected] I was lured to order several microfilm copies from this company with "guarantees" of "speedy delivery" and "low price" . My order was placed in October of 1998 and as of this posting I have not received the order or a refund after numerous contacts with Steven Jensen at this firm . In his occasional replies he repeatedly gave false information to me as to the status of the order and cashed the check when mentioned stopping payment on it .I have copies of all documents and correspondences for those interested . Complaints have been filed with the Better Business Bureau and the United States Postal Inspectors , they have informed me that even they can't order this company to give a refund , but may seek criminal charges . I guess small claims court is next . If you are seeking genealogy resources......consider my experiences with this "Firm". Thank you , Kenneth Sartin researching ; Sartin , Sartain , Sarton , Sarten , Sardin etc. etc.

Desire to have a copy of the will of Purnell Truitt, b. c1768 in MD who married Mary Whaley and they came to Harris County, GA in their old age with some of their children or grandchildren. He died there and is listed in one census as Daniel Truitt. Please send me a copy of his will if there was one made - he died in 1854. I also need to know his burial place.

Was wondering if anyone has any information on this family: Charles Philips (b. in North Carolina) m. to Anna Nix and had the following children: Elizabeth Yarbrough Philips, Dorinda Philips, Margaret Philips, Pleasant Jackson Philips, Abram Philips, George Nix Philips, Sarah Philips and Henry Lowe Philips. Elizabeth m. Reuben J. Crews in 1828 in Harris Co., GA and that is all that I have been able to prove (my line of descent is through Elizabeth and Reuben). I have heard that Charles Philips was called General Philips - don't know if this is real or honorary. Also that Charles was the first postmaster at Ellerslie (from Louise Calhoun Barfield's book on the history of Harris Co., GA). Any information anyone can provide would be gratefully appreciated.

Hi everyone, I've got a question that has been bugging me for sometime and was hoping maybe someone on this list could help. The documentation on my Crews line ends with the marriage of Reuben Jordan Crews to Elizabeth Philips in Harris County in 1828. Family lore gives the death dates for both of these people as about the year 1854 which would make Reuben 50 and his wife 40 years old. Does anyone know of something special happening in the county at that time (they are listed in the Ellerslie District in the 1850 census) that would have allowed them both to die at a relatively young age and at the same time? Indian raids, epidemic, etc.??? Reuben's will was written in 1853 but I have not been able to figure out when it was proven. The will, however, was very specific about the education of his children. I don't know if that was because Reuben was a lawyer (which he was) or because he knew that he was going to die soon. And while I am at it I guess I'll ask another question that someone might be able to answer. Does anyone know what churches would have been around in that district at that time that they might have attended and did those churches have cemetaries that would still be accessible? I know that in the next generation the family members were Methodists but don't know whether that was true for Reuben's family. I am hoping that if their graves could be located I could confirm their death dates and locations. Well, sorry to go on so long. Any help is appreciated on these problems.

I have just updated the Harris County pages. I'm sorry it took so long for me to move the queries, surnames, and cemetery records to their permanent places.

Hi, Kathleen, My gggrandfather was REV. WILLLIAM NELSON SNELL who lived in Harris/Muscogee from 1843-1869. In the Barfield book there's a reference to a marriage between a Mrs. Mary Snell and a W.P.? Downs in 1866. We don't know who this Mary Snell is or whether she's a part of our branch. Do you have any info? Many thanks.

I'm looking for information on WELDONS in Harris County area around 1840. Specifically, I've found the following census listing for Harris County 1840: HARRIS COUNTY, GA JEFFERSON COUNTY, GA #267 James Weldon 1 male under 5 2 males 15-20 1 male 40-50 2 females under 5 2 females 5-10 2 females 10-15 1 female 15-20 1 female 30-40 My ancestor, Nancy Weldon, may be one of these children but I can not tell for sure. Does anyone recognize this family in the census listing? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kim Owen Chance [email protected] http://www.fastlane.net/~schance/Genealogy.html Arlington, Texas

I am forwarding this message to the group to see if anyone has knowledge of this family. Repond directly to Dan Cotney at [email protected] Barbara Stock [email protected] I have been searching for some time records of JAMES COTNEY who was in Harris County apx. 1825-1835. He died in 1835, there. I have found some records which indicate he had several children, listed by name, but all seem to have disappeared. My research of the Cotney is quiet extensive but, as I have said, all this family disappeared after James' death. I will appreciate any information.
