    1. [[GALAUREN]] Re: researching FOUNTAIN
    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/Zc.2ADI/1375.1382.1.1 Message Board Post: I am interested in a HARDON, PERRY, McGAHEE and possibly a FOUNTAIN connection, especially in the Emanuel/Jefferson County, GA area. I have a Julia/Rachel DANIEL born about 1820 in Emanuel County, GA listed in the 1850 Jefferson County, GA census. We know she was the wife of Robert W. DANIEL, Esq. (1809-1865) of Bethany, Jefferson County, GA. However, the marriage records of Richmond County, GA say he married a Julia FLORENCE in 1841 and we know their first child, Julia R. DANIEL was born in 1843 and she was lsited as a Rachel DANIEL, age 26, born Emanuel County, GA in the 1850 census. The problem I have with the FLORENCE name is -- a FLORENCE family never lived in Emanuel County, GA in the time frame she was born. I also know from this same 1850 Jefferson County, Ga census that this Julia R. DANIEL was also born in Emanuel County, GA, age 7 in 1850. This tells me the marriage records of Richmond County, GA may be wrong. There are several families in Emanuel County, GA that could possibly match -- FLANDERS, FLOWERS, FOUNTAIN and FLOURNOY. I also know that Robert's brother, James L. DANIEL (1814-1857) married as his second wife, an Ann (1809-1861) and she says in her will that her sister was a Maria HARDON and her brother was a John PERRY. I do not know who the HARDON was but a John PERRY, age 61, born NC, was living with Ann DANIEL in Jefferson County, GA in 1860. I think this Ann was the daughter of Micajah McGAHEE and Ann SCOTT and this John PERRY was her brother-in-law who had married one of her sisters but I have not straightened all of this out, yet. Any information is appreciated.
