Dawn - Re. your query, I have a few items (maybe someone else has some input?). I don't have much on Youngblood - there was an article in the old Georgia Express Newspaper on 9/15/1810, from Wm. Wood, Jailer at Jefferson, Jackson Co., about a negro fellow named Jacob, who said he belonged to Benjamin Youngblood of Baldwin Co., GA - owner requested to come and take him home. > Youngblood line comes from Blairsville, Union County and is first found in > Jackson Co. GA with John Youngblood b. 1842 (buried in Pendergrass Cemetery- > inscribed Co F. 6 GA Cal CSA) his children were : Wallace b 1869 m. Lillie > Ann Hayes (children Charles R. and Ralph), James Calvin b. 1871 (m. Dora > Ophelia Hayes b. 1872 d. 1903 "my gr grandparents" and 2nd wife Maude > McEntire) and Bellzona b. 1873. > > The Hayes: The above Lillie Ann and Dora Ophelia were sisters, daus of > George Andrew Hayes b. 1847 Jackson Co d. 1892 and Cinthia Jane Long b. 1851 > d. 1902 both in Jackson Co. As you had mentioned, Cinthia Jane Long was the dau. of Willis Long and Sarah Whitmire. I have a copy of a chart that shows Willis's father as being John Anderson Long, b. Aug. 22, 1787, Abbeville Dist., SC, m. Rhoda Pearce, b. 1795. Willis was b. June 16, 1816, Jackson Co., m. Sarah Whitmire on 3/1/1840, d. Aug. 24, 1859, Pendergrass, GA. According to the book WHITMIRE FAMILY OF GA by Nellie Leola Whitmire Pantell, 1992, Sarah Whitmire was b. Sept. 14, 1821, d. Apr. 24, 1909, and was the 11th child of John and Susan Whitmire. Sarah d. Aug. 24, 1895 and was buried at Pendergrass Church Cem. In a volume at the Jackson Co. Courthouse, "Bonds, Administrators & Guardians, 1818-1843", p. 195: William Lyle, John J. McCullock, Isaac Boring and Osbon M. Long bound in the sume of $20,000 on July 4, 1837. Condition of the above is that William Lyle and John J. McCullock, temporary administratos of the goods, chattels and credits of James Tait, deceased, do make a true & perfect inventory ... Wonder who Osbon M. Long was? I didn't find another reference to him. > George A. Hayes was the son of James Toy Hayes b. 1823 d. 1889 and Martha D. > Lyle b. 1825 d. 1860. George's parents died in Terrell Co. . Martha Lyle was > the dau of William Lyle b. 1770 VA d. 1860 Jackson Co.and Elizabeth Boring b. > 1784 Jackson Co d. 1863. As you know, Elizabeth Boring's parents were Isaac Boring and Phoebe Browning. Isaac was b. in NC on 3/8/1762, was a Rev. Soldier and left a will in Jackson Co., will dated 9/14/1829, probated 6/7/1831. (He was the son of Joseph and Susannah Boring.) Elizabeth Lyle was mentioned in the will. She was b. Oct. 29, 1784, m. to William Lyle in 1803, and d. 1863. William was b. Dec. 21, 1770, d. Oct. 24, 1860. (This info taken from a newspaper article, The Times, Gaiknesville, July 18, 1976.) Their children: Dilmus Lyle, b. 1/4/1804, d. 1880, m. Sally Green Charles B. Lyle, b. 1/4/1807, d. 1881, m. Julia Carlton James B. Lyle John B. Lyle William C. Lyle Francis M. Lyle Rebecca Lyle Elizabeth Lyle Asenath Lyle Martha Lyle David S. Lyle The article says, "William Lyle was the son of Maher Shallol Hasby Lyle who came from Halifax Co., VA. Maher Lyle was a Scotchman and also a soldier in the Rev. War. He was with George Washington at Yorktown when Cornwallis surrendered. Mather was b. Mar. 14, 1737 and died Jan. 30, 1814. He was m. to Elizabeth Gibson, b. Feb. 13, 1741 and d. Jan. 15, 1831 at age 90." (I suspect you have most of this!) There are numerous references in my book JACKSON CO., GA, DEED ABSTRACTS, 1796-1808, to William Lyle, William Henry Lyle, and one each for Dilmus Lyle and George Noble Lyle. William H. Lyle was agent, and had a power of attorney dated 9/11/1800 from William Lyle of Prince Georges Co., MD to lease, rent or convey his properties in the State of GA in Franklin Co. On 2/24/1806, William Lyle of Prince Georges Co., MD appointed his son, George Noble Lyles, his true and lawful attorney for his lands in Franklin Co. (now divided into other counties). Sworn before Cleon Moore, N.P. for Alexandria Town and Co., D.C. As far as I can tell, this is the same William Lyle. Maybe you can verify, Dawn? > William Lyle's father was Maher Shallet Hasty Lyle b. Scotland 1737 > Elizabeth Boring's father was Isaac Boring Sr b. 1762 Hope you got that snow - its just COLD down here in Snellville, GA! Faye
