You probably shoud write the probate court in Jones Co, for a copy of the will. Often abstracts will leave out important information. The county seat is Gray, Ga. Usually for $5.00 they will send you a copy. Good luck . [email protected] Ann

Please post the 4 volumn set of research books on line. My library doesn't have them. Perhaps they will get them. Thanks Judy T
The index to the subject book is available from Washington Library. They sent me a copy for $25.00. Since it is a xeroxed copy and consists of about 100 pages, it's probably worth it. I had planned to scan it and put it on line, but I couldn't get everything to work. Charles Middlebrooks

Donna, The Washington Memorial Library in Macon has a four-volume set of books on the history of Jones Co in their genealogy department. It mostly contains censuses, a few marriage records, and court documents. I don't have the exact name of it or who wrote it, though. I'll be at the library next week, so if you haven't gotten the name of the books by then, I could check on it for you. I don't recall if there are any family bios in them or not.

In the past, someone sent me info. and mentioned 'the Jones Co. history book'. Does anyone have info. on the exact title/author of this book, and where it may be obtained? Is a local genealogical soc. offering it? I'd rather buy from them, if so. Donna Wall in Georgia
Hi, Mick. The Washington Memorial Library in Macon has a large and very good genealogy department. I'm sure they would be able to help you with your research. Macon is in Bibb Co., GA, which is right next to Jones Co. Washington Memorial Library Genealogy & Archives 1180 Washington Avenue Macon, GA 31201 Telephone: 912-744-0820 A few months back I corresponded with a KITCHENS researcher on another family line. I don't know if any of her KITCHENS were in Jones Co., but I will look up her name and e-mail address and send that along to you when I find it. Yes, Griswoldville was hit very hard in the Civil War. There's not much there today. Darleen Miller Centerville, GA ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

Hello, My father was born 1913 in Griswoldville,Jones Co,Georgia,USA. I believe the family religon was Episcopalian. I have recently discovered a LDS film [No 1903706] which has Kitchens folks in Griswoldville in the following groups 1809-1825, parents William Kitchens and Mary Story Brooks 1839-1857, parents William Kitchens and Nancy W Kelly Can anyone advise me of e or snail addresses of any Church, Family History Soc or fellow genealogist that can assist my research? >From what little I have learned so far [I live in Western Australia, the home of the black swan] Griswoldville is not that large a place and was hit heavily during the Civil War. I have also found another film [No 1230620] which lists Jones Co deaths as follows Father: Boze Kitchens Mother ? 4 deaths, all in circa 1875 Father: William Kitchens Mother ? 10 deaths, all in circa 1850 Could there have been 2 disasters in the Kitchens clan? Mick Kitchens. If patience with the living is a virtue then patience with the dead is a necessity.
Can anyone tell me if there or any records on burials at the Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge? How can I contact someone regarding that area? thanks pat
If anyone has any info on EVANS please let me know. I am stuck at OBEDIAH EVANS b abt 1817. Married Martha Ann __?__ had the following children: RUFUS b abt 1859 JAMES b abt 1843 KEIR JACKSON b abt 1844/45 MARY ANN M. b abt 1848 SARAH A.E. b abt 1851 ISAAC b abt 1853 JOSIAH D. b abt 1855 They are last showing on the 1860 census for Twiggs county ga. however I know that descendants of RUFUS (my ggrandfather) lived in jones and baldwin co. RUFUS had a son named OZIE FREEMAN EVANS who married NORA CORLILLAH BATCHELOR in Baldwin county. I would like to know who the father of OBEDIAH EVANS was and also what happened to RUFUS EVANS. Family says he may have been killed in a sawmill or may have been incarcerated. Any info on the EVANS from the 1800's would be helpful. thanks pat
