What would be the best way for someone living in California to locate a will for someone who died in Laurens Co, between the 1830-1840 censuses? Name: Elijah Mills I hope I am on this list. I cancelled some when I went on vacation and can't remember if this is one. I couldn't find my "sign up" notice.

Hi, The Library opens at 10 am and closes at 8 pm on Mon, Tues, Thurs. " 10 am " at 6 pm on Wed and Sat. The Court House is open at 8 or 8:30 and closes at 4:30 I believe. The Dublin-Laurens Museum is located across from the Old Martin Theatre between the Library and the Court House. They open only in the afternoon and I believe they are closed on Monday.

According to this rule (if you apply it to the old censuses from the 1800s), someone in a household within ten dwellings of your household of interest is a relative of someone in your household of interest. I'd like to apply that rule to my g-gf Ivey MORRIS on the 1840 census of Laurens Co., Ga. 1840 Laurens Co. Ga. Census Capt. Alligood's District, p. 153 Ivy MORRIS (first on page) 1 m u5 1 m 20-30 [Ivy b. in NC c. 1815] 1 f 20-30 The previous 10 neighbors on one side were Hillary ALLIGOOD (next door), Matilda FAIRCLOTH, David KILPATRICK, John LUKE, John W------?, Bennet JOINER, Margaret INGRAM, WW WHITEHEAD, AE NOLES, Daniel ROBERTS. The next 10 households on his other side were Henry ALLIGOOD (next door), Wm. D. YOUNG, Wright ALLIGOOD, Hardy ALLIGOOD, Hilary ALLIGOOD, Jr., John M. HAMPTON, Benj. DARSEY, Burrell HIGDON, and John HOUGH of GOUGH?, and Guilford GRIFFIN. You can see he was surrounded by ALLIGOODs. Ivy Morris married Susan GOFF in 1837 in Laurens Co. Susan's brother?, Andrew J. GOFF, married Martha A. GRIFFIN in Laurens Co. in 1845. Ivy and Susan and Andrew and Martha migrated to Barbour Co., Ala. about 1849. Other names of interest on the 1840 Laurens Co. Census in Capt. Alligood's District were Samuel ALLIGOOD, Hardy GRIFFIN, Malakiah GOFF, and John G. B. GOFF. As you can see there were no MORRISes anywhere nearby, evidently no others there in 1840 or even 1830. If you have any of these people in your tree, please share them with me. Thanks, Cheryll

Murkerson? Anyway, I have this photo (postcard) and would be glad to send you a scanned copy if you will email me ([email protected]) and send me your email address. l'm willing to share a copy of the photo with anyone else that is interested (and will share/provide family info) --just email me. I am very interested in how a photo of this person came to be in her possession. I don't think there is a family connection but I could be wrong. My great-aunt was Nora Brown Dean and she lived just outside of Toomsboro, Wilkinson Co, GA. When she was very young (toddler?) she lived in Laurens Co. Her father was William Clark Brown. All her family (Browns) are buried at Ebenezer Church just outside Toomsboro. Aunt Nora raised my father, Algernon Brown Cannon. Anyway, Aunt Nora loved to have company come to visit and over the years collected many photos of family and friends and their children, etc. There are many unidentified photos that I'm sure we'll never figure out who the people were. Hope to hear from you soon. Jean Cannon Kinney
