    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Bd.2ADE/312.391.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I'm not sure. I think there are some possibilities in my note files but will have to search for it. At the moment, all I can remember is that Nancy Miller was born about 1815 in Oglethorpe County, GA. She and Boswell Hammond, born June 5, 1811 SC must have also married somewhere in that county for they were already married when they came to Heard County and settled near the Salem UMC. Later they moved to Troup County where Nancy died near Harrisonville. Just prior to her death, Aunt Mary was born, and following Nancy's death, Aunt Mary lived with her sister Fannie Hammond Bell until she married my uncle Joseph. Also, according to my notes, the first 6 of Boswell & Nancy's 13 children were born in Oglethorpe County, GA, some born in Heard County and the last ones born in Troup County. Boswell's 2nd wife, Sidney Harris, was also born in Oglethorpe County according to my records. She was living in Heard County, widow of John Harris w/8 children when she married B! oswell.
