>From message boards Irwin Whittington & Desc. My husband descends from Sherrod Whittington and I have considered that Sherrod & Irwin may have been brothers. I have not been able to find any proof to back up this theory, only circumstantial evidence so far. Here is what I have on Irwin Whittington: 1806 Columbia Co., GA Tax List: Irwin Whittington is listed as paying one poll ($.31), no property. William Whittington is listed next to Irwin. William had 1 slave, 300 ac. near Brier Creek and paid $.81 tax. (Note: By 1812, Sherrod Whittington is living in Columbia Co. There is also a Barnett Whittington living in Columbia Co. in 1806. Barnett is married to Sarah Savage, daug. of Loveless Savage). 1812-GA, Irwin Whittington is listed as a soldier in the War of 1812 with GA 1st Regt., Harris' Co. according to "Index of War of 1812 Soldiers" at Washington Memorial Library, Macon, GA. 1820 census, Warren Co., GA p. 278: Irwin Whittington 400010-02010-01, 4 M <10, 1 M 26-45, 2 F 10-16, 1 F 26-45, 1 person engaged in agriculture, no slaves. 1830-Crawford Co., GA census, p. 402: Irwin Whittington 2122001-2000201 No Slaves. 2 M <5, 1 M 5-10, 2 M 10-15, 2 M 15-20, 1 M 40-50, 2 F <5, 2 F 20-30, 1 F 40-50. 1840- Macon Co., GA census, p. 003: Irwin Whittington 1 M 5-10, 1 M 15-20, 1 M 20-30, 1 M 50-60, 1 F 10-15, 1 F 15-20, 1 F 20-30, 1 F 50-60. 1850-Macon Co., GA census 120A: Allen Whittington 30 M Farmer $1500 GA (Irwin no longer living, believe this is what remains of his household), John Whittington 10 M, Susan 55 F (age may be incorrect as Irwin's wife should be 60-70 years of age. Believe this is his wife because she is too old to be Allen's wife and she is listed after John indicating John is probably the son of Allen and Susan is Allen's widowed mother, therefore listed last). Children of Irwin & Susan Whittington based on birth dates and places of residence: Lucinda, m. Thomas J. Amerson 1833 Craw. Co., GA, d. bef 1860 Female, born between 1800-1810 William, b. 1810, m. Elizabeth (LNU) bef. 1838 (1840-50 census Macon Co.) James, b. abt 1812, m. Elizabeth Hobbs 1836, Craw Co. (1840 census Talbot Co.) John, b. 1814-15 (m. Miriam Bartlett (Talbot Co-1840-50 census, Taylor 1860) Allen, b. abt. 1818 per obit (1850 Macon Co.,Ga, 1860 Taylor Co. GA) Susan is w/him 1850. Clayton, b. 1820-25, (m. Judith P. Turner 1846 Craw Co) 1850-80 census Craw Co. Martha, b. abt. 1826, (m. Ezekiel Adams bef. 1845, 1850 census Talbot Co.) Female, b. 1825-30, may have died young Robert, b. abt. 1829 (m. Martha LNU abt 1850, 1850 Talbot Co., 1860 Taylor Co. census) Male, b. 1825-30, may have died young By 1850 Irwin is no longer living. From the will of Allen Whittington, I know that Clayton is his brother and Martha Adams is his sister. There are some other Whittingtons listed near some of the above families whom I have yet to identify. Living next to Allen is Edy Whittington, age 35 in 1850, who I later learn had 3 children, Benjamin F. b. 1842, Sylvester b. 1846, and a daughter Elizabeth Sabrina, b. bef 1842. Edy may have been the second wife of James, but I have found no evidence to support that theory. She is found on the 1860 census of Worth Co., GA and dies on 25 Oct. 1885 in Colquitt Co. GA. In 1850, there is a Mahala Whittington, age 24 F, living two doors from Allen Whittington with a 4 year old child, Mary J. By 1860 this child, Mary J. is 15 years old and living with Allen Whittington in Taylor Co., GA. They are the only two listed in the household. Allen identifies a daughter, Mary Ella, in his will. My guess is that Mary J. born about 1845 is his daughter. Does that mean that Mahala, age 24 in 1850 is Allen's wife? I haven't yet found a marriage record for Allen. Also in 1850, there is a Mary Whittington, age 13, living in the home of Ezekiel & Martha (Whittington) Adams. This girl does not fit an age category to be a sister to Martha. The only possibility I have been able to come up with for her based on census records (3 year old in 1840) is a daughter of James Whittington. This Mary is listed as Mary A. E. Whittington on the 1860 census, with two sons, James F. P. Whittington age 6, and John R. E. Whittington age 4. Mary is living in the household with John Q. Campbell, whom she marries in 1864. Mary's occupation is listed as "prostitute" in 1860, and that leads me to believe she lost her parents early or fell on hard times in some way, and has had to fend for herself. If anyone can shed some light on any of these people, please do. A lot of this is just theory at this point, but will hopefully provide a starting point to either prove or dis-prove these relationships.

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- From: "Gary W Cooper" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: BACON Family VA, SC, & settling in GA Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2003 14:22:22 GMT I would like to hear from anyone having knowledge of ANYONE of the BACON family migrating from VA, through SC to settle in central and southwest central GA. I have tracked Lyddall (various spellings Lydle, Lyddle, Lyddal, etc) BACON, from the 1820 Jones Co. Census, the 1840 Stewart Co. Census, and finally the 1850 Marion County Census. Word is that he also spent time in Elbert and Bibb Counties, and possibly even some time around Marietta, GA. I have not found him in the 1830 GA Census, and don't know where he was then, possibly went back into SC or VA for a time. In 1810, he must have been in his fathers household in either VA or SC. His firstborn son was named Langston, which may give an indication of Lyddall's father's name, if he maintained the tradition of naming the firstborn son for his father. Lyddall's spouse's name unknown, but could have been a COOK(E) from SC. Children were: Keziah (female) b. 1808-1810, married Benjamin Garrett Langston b. 1811-1818, married a Mary Caroline Griffin Sarah "Sallie" b. around 1815, married Maj. Wm. Dupree (1870s) Elizabeth b. 1820, married William S. Cooper Edmond b. around 1823, married Nellie Catherine Cranford Martha b. around 1826, married James H.

I am tempted to send this to our newspaper, who also bends over backward now, to re-write history-and please the majority of the folks in town...we are a minority of about 40%...now. I don't consider myself prejudiced, but do not think I should have to pay in any way for what other generations did either! (Indians, etc.) In war, you win, you lose, and that is for that generation to take care of.(In my opinion) And not to re-write to please anyone. Very good article..change it, get more people to come..whatever the cost. Gerry
My Harley Barfield b. 1820 (resource; 1850 Macon Co, Ga. census) seems to be the son of Barrett Barfield in Steve Scroggins genealogy. Nothing else is said about him in this lineage other than him being the 16th son of Barrett Barfield, Sr.. Harley and my Sarah Jane had issue named John, Giles, Celea (Celia), Julia, Cary B., Bartee (maybe, Barrett), and Adeline (my 2nd great grandmother). Seems the John, Celia, and Barrett are names in Barrett Sr's lineage or some of his other children's names. Does anyone know anything about this line? Does anyone have any info on Harley Barfield or his wife Sarah Jane? For instance, her maiden surname, her parents, where he or she are buried? --- Gerry Hill <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes, I had looked at that, and tried the Susan > Collier connection, but could > not get that one. > > Thanks, > Gerry > > http://www.fortunecity.com/meltingpot/harrow/505/Gen-Barfield.htm > > > > ==== GAMACON Mailing List ==== > Unsubscribing.

I am a great believer that History is just that history. If we continue to move down the political correct path that seems to be rewriting history our histoy will be totally lost. I am sending you this article from Pat Buchanan about Gettysburg. I hope that someday all Civil War Battle fields will be privately owned so the history will remain just that an accurate accounting of the events that took place on that site. Margie Political correctness at Little Round Top -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: January 6, 2003 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2003 Creators Syndicate, Inc. Almost all who visit Gettysburg, best preserved of all the Civil War battlefields, find it a deeply moving experience. This is truly hallowed ground. Here, tens of thousands of Union and Confederate soldiers fought the decisive battle of America's bloodiest war. >From the first clash of the Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia, to Lee's attempt to turn the Union flank at Little Round Top on the second day, to Pickett's Charge against the Union center on Seminary Ridge on the third, to Lee's bleeding retreat back over the Potomac as a frustrated Abraham Lincoln wondered why his newest commander, George Meade, had not finished Lee's army with its back to the swollen river - it is an incredible story, told wonderfully well by the guides at Gettysburg Battlefield. Now the story of the heroes in Blue and Gray is to be replaced with propaganda. The 1.8 million annual visitors to Gettysburg are to be indoctrinated in the politically correct history of the war. "Gettysburg to Tell Story of Slavery During War," was the headline the Washington Times put on its story about how the National Park Service "has embarked on an effort to change its interpretive materials at major Civil War battlefields to get rid of a Southern bias and emphasize the horrors of slavery." A $95 million visitors center and museum is going up to recast the battle in a new light. "For the past 100 years," says Gettysburg Park Superintendent John Latschar, "we've been presenting this battlefield as the high watermark of the Confederacy and focusing on the personal valor of the soldiers who fought here. ... We want to get away from the traditional descriptions of who shot whom, where and into discussions of why they were shooting one another." Why the change? Unhappy that so many visitors to Gettysburg are white males, and so few are African-Americans, Latschar called in three historians to study how the Park Service was presenting the battle. The three wise men decided that the interpretive programs at Gettysburg had a "pervasive Southern sympathy." (How one can hear of 15,000 men and boys walking across a mile of open field into cannon and musket fire, in the name of God, country and Gen. Lee, without being put in awe and admiration, escapes me.) Latschar then visited the Holocaust Museum and was inspired: "Our current museum (at Gettysburg) is absolutely abysmal. It tells no story. It's a curator's museum with no rhyme or reason." But one visits the Holocaust Museum to learn about the fate of the Jews under Hitler. One does not go there to learn about Dunkirk or D-Day. And Americans who cherish the battlefields of the Civil War - Vicksburg, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Antietam, Manassas - do not go there to be instructed on the evils of the Confederacy. Moreover, to convert every battlefield into an endless seminar on the evils of slavery and the South is a fine way to turn these sites of national unity into cauldrons of national division. President Bush should stop the politicization of Gettysburg. To let it happen would be an abuse of office. It would be to permit ground made sacred by the blood of soldiers to be exploited by ideologues to reopen old wounds. The old battlefields will become new battlegrounds of the culture war. Does America really need that? There are places to argue the great issues of 1861. Did the South have a right to secede? Was the cause of the war slavery, or secession, or Lincoln's refusal to let the South go in peace? Or was it tariffs, or a desire of the South to separate from a North with which it has less and less in common? Did Lincoln fight the Civil War to free the slaves? Or only to restore the Union? The forums in which to debate these questions are books, editorials, classrooms, columns, seminars, TV shows. But for the Park Service to impose its orthodoxy on these questions and pervert battlefields to indoctrinate visitors in the party line is to dishonor these hallowed grounds. That slavery is wrong no one today disbelieves. But when the South fired on Fort Sumter, there were eight slave states in the Union, only seven in the Confederacy. It was Lincoln's call to arms to invade the South that pushed North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and Arkansas out of the Union. In waging cultural war to abolish the West, Gramsci and his Marxist comrades dictated that all social institutions should be captured to advance the revolution - from children's classrooms to college seminars. Now, Civil War battlefields are to become indoctrination centers of Political Correctness, unless we stop it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Related Offer: Buchanan's latest book is here!

I have just had no success in finding the direct link between my g-g-g-grandfather Lyddall Bacon (ca 1790-1854) who supposedly migrated from VA thru SC and settled in GA. He has appeared in several counties in GA from the 1830s thru 1854, including Richmond, Bibb, Jones, Elbert, Stewart, Macon, Muscogee and finally Marion where he died in 1854. I believe some branches also migrated to Colquitt, Mitchell and Sumter Counites in GA. Family legend has it that he has brother Robert who migrated to New England, and Thomas who also migrated south, possibly to GA also. The legend has it that the brothers were disinherited because of a conflict over his choice of a spouse after their mother died. Another family legend has it that the mother of these brothers was named Esther Lyddall. I can believe the Esther, but have many doubts about her surname being Lyddall. She supposedly was a grandaughter of George Lyddall. The time frame does not seem to coincide with this legend. I know that my Lyddall, was at times and "overseer" on plantations, and that the Governor of GA appointed him Justice of the Peace in 1840s in Stewart County, GA. The story goes that he traveled on horseback dispensing his Justice duties as kind of a "circuit rider" official. My Lyddall also supposed married a lady surnamed Cook(e), who came from a very religious family (possibly Primative Baptist), from SC. This has never been proven either. Her possible given name has been offered as either Elizabeth or Sarah, or maybe even Sarah Elizabeth. They had children named Langston-b. 1811-1818 (maried Caroline Griffin), Elizabeth-b. 1820-(married William Stevens Cooper, my g-g-grandfather ca. 1840-42), Edmond (married Nellie Catherine Cranford), Martha (married James H. Tait/Tate), and Sarah aka "Sallie" (married Major Wm. DuPree as his 2nd wife late in life and after Lyddall died). The naming patterns are consistent with other Lyddall BACON family branches. Any and all help is appreciated! Regards, Gary [email protected] Gary W. & Christie J. Cooper 653 Lover's Lane Road Dawson, Georgia 39842
Chief William McIntosh Called Tustunnugee Hutkee (White Warrior), William McIntosh was the son of Captain William McIntosh, a member of a prominent Savannah, Georgia family sent into the Creek Nation to recruit them to fight for the British during the Revolutionary War. His mother, a Creek named Senoya, was a member of the prominent Wind Clan. Raised as an Indian, he never knew his Tory father who, after fathering a second son by another Creek woman, returned to Savannah. Because among the Creeks, descent was determined through one's mother; the fact that his father was white was of little importance to the Creeks. A cousin of Georgia Governor George M. Troup, he gained the enmity of Alabama's Upper Creek Indians by leading General Andrew Jackson's Indian troops during the Creek Indian War of 1813 - 1814, during which the Upper Creeks were defeated. For his services at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend and elsewhere, he was commissioned a brigadier general in the United States Army. During the War of 1812, a civil war between the Upper and Lower Creeks broke out, and McIntosh was selected to head a kind of national police force established by Benjamin Hawkins, an Indian agent, to deal with nativistic Creeks, who were led by another half-Scottish Creek, Peter McQueen. "Now increasingly evident was the impending estrangement between the nativistic Upper Creeks and the Lower Creeks, who were increasingly swayed by Hawkin's policy of acculturation, his political system, and his argument for the necessity of the law menders [like McIntosh] to see justice done." ["McIntosh and Weatherford, Creek Indian Leaders" by Benjamin W. Griffith, Jr.] In an 1817 letter written to President Madison and signed by McIntosh, Madison was told that, while the more influential Cherokees of mixed blood wanted to swap their land, the "not so much civilized" pure bloods feared the mixed-bloods would--as they did--swap all their land, leaving them "without any land to walk on." The Creeks feared that these Cherokees might--as they already had--take land from the Creeks. After the Creek Indian War, McIntosh built a plantation on the Chattahoochee River in Carroll County called Lockchau Talofau (Acorn Bluff) that was worked by 72 slaves. (It is near Whitesburg and is today maintained as a park by Carroll County.) McIntosh also fought for the United States in the First Seminole War. He gained fame during this war by playing a major role in the capture of a "Negro Fort" located on the lower Apalachicola. (Georgia slaves escaped and took refuge with the Seminoles in British-held Florida.) This fort was occupied by about 300 black men, women, and children, 20 renegade Choctaws, and a few Seminole warriors. Its defenders were led by a black named Garcon. The downfall of the fort was brought about by an American cannon ball heated red hot setting off a tremendous explosion when it landed in the fort's magazine. (A magazine is where black gun powder is stored.) Despite the fact the Upper Creeks had vowed to kill anyone who signed away any more Indian land, McIntosh, along with eight other chiefs, on February 12, 1825 signed the Treaty of Indian Springs; thus relinquishing all the Creeks' land in Georgia in exchange for $400,000, which was then worth vastly more than it is today. Whether he signed the treaty for personal gain or because he believed signing it was in the best interests of the Creek Nation is still argued. Despite Governor Troup's promise to protect him, on April 30th about 200 Creeks set fire to McIntosh's plantation and killed him. If his enemies had waited much longer, McIntosh wouldn't have been there, as he was planning to leave soon to look over land promised him along the Arkansas River. McIntosh's home served as an inn and tavern on the Federal Road where it crossed the Chattahoochee, and because the River was then above its banks, some travelers had decided to spend the night there, hoping the waters would recede. Thus, there were several witness to the terrible events that took place there besides McIntosh's family. Just before daybreak, a party of Upper Creeks set fire to an outbuilding in order to light up the yard so as to prevent anyone from escaping. They called to the white guests and women to come out, saying they would come to no harm. McIntosh's son Chilly and another mixed-blood escaped from an outbuilding they were sleeping in because there wasn't room for everybody in the main house. Shot in the front doorway of his home, McIntosh managed to climb the stairs to the second floor, from which he began shooting at his assailants. Forced to leave when they set fire to the house, he was shot and dragged some distance from the house. Raising himself on an elbow, he gave them a defiant look as he was stabbed in the heart. An eyewitness estimated that his corpse was shot about 50 times. After destroying what they could not carry off--slaves, horses, and cattle--the assassins left After his death, his wife Peggy complained in the Cherokee Advocate that, "I do not blame the Creeks, the Creeks treat me well, the Cherokees treat me well--it was by Government my husband lost his life--Government say to my husband 'Go Arkansas, go to Arkansas, and you will be better off.' My husband wished to please the Government--my house is burned, myself and my children run--my children naked--no bread--one blanket, is all--like some stray dog, I suffer; with one blanket I cover my three children and myself--the Government say 'Go!' The Indians kill him; between two fires my husband dies; I wander--Government does not feed me--Creek does not feed me--no home, no bread, nothing! nothing! Till Gen. Ware gives me a home, I suffer like some stray Indian dog."

Treaty of Fort Jackson August 9, 1814 Articles of agreement and capitulation, made and concluded this ninth day of August, one thousand eight hundred and fourteen, between major general Andrew Jackson, on behalf of the President of the United States of America, and the chiefs, deputies, and warriors of the Creek Nation. /A/ WHEREAS an unprovoked, inhuman, and sanguinary war, waged by the hostile Creeks against the United States, hath been repelled, prosecuted and determined, successfully, on the part of the said States, in conformity with principles of national justice and honorable warfare - - And whereas consideration is due to the rectitude of proceeding dictated by instructions relating to the re-establishment of peace: Be it remembered, that prior to the conquest of that part of the Creek nation hostile to the United States, numberless aggressions had been committed against the peace, the property, and the lives of citizens of the United States, and those of the Creek nation in amity with her, at the mouth of Duck river, Fort Mimms, and elsewhere, contrary to national faith, and the regard due to an article of the treaty concluded at New-York, in the year seventeen hundred ninety, between the two nations: That the United States, previously to the perpetration of such outrages, did, in orde! r to ensure future amity and concord between the Creek nation and the said states, in conformity with the stipulations of former treaties, fulfil, with punctuality and good faith, her engagements to the said nation: that more than two-thirds of the whole number of chiefs and warriors of the Creek nation, disregarding the genuine spirit of existing treaties, suffered themselves to be instigated to violations of their national honor, and the respect due to a part of their own nation faithful to the United States and the principles of humanity, by impostures (impostors,) denominating themselves Prophets, and by the duplicity and misrepresentation of foreign emissaries, whose governments are at war, open or understood, with the United States. Wherefore, 1st - - The United States demand an equivalent for all expenses incurred in prosecuting the war to its termination, by a cession of all the territory belonging to the Creek nation within the territories of the United States, lying west, south, and south-eastwardly, of a line to be run and described by persons duly authorized and appointed by the President of the United States - - Beginning at a point on the eastern bank of the Coosa river, where the south boundary line of the Cherokee nation crosses the same; running from thence down the said Coosa river with its eastern bank according to its various meanders to a point one mile above the mouth of Cedar creek, at Fort Williams, thence east two miles, thence south two miles, thence west to the eastern bank of the said Coosa river, thence down the eastern bank thereof according to its various meanders to a point opposite the upper end of the great falls, (called by the natives Woetumka,) thence east from a true meridian line t! o a point due north of the mouth of Ofucshee, thence south by a like meridian line to the mouth of Ofucshee on the south side of the Tallapoosa river, thence up the same, according to its various meanders, to a point where a direct course will cross the same at the distance of ten miles from the mouth thereof, thence a direct line to the mouth of Summochico creek, which empties into the Chatahouchie river on the east side thereof below the Eufaulau town, thence east from a true meridian line to a point which shall intersect the line now dividing the lands claimed by the said Creek nation from those claimed and owned by the state of Georgia: Provided, nevertheless, that where any possession of any chief or warrior of the Creek nation, who shall have been friendly to the United States during the war, and taken an active part therein, shall be within the territory ceded by these articles to the United States, every such person shall be entitled to a reservation of land within t! he said territory of one mile square, to include his improvements as near the centre thereof as may be, which shall inure to the said chief or warrior, and his descendants, so long as he or they shall continue to occupy the same, who shall be protected by and subject to the laws of the United States; but upon the voluntary abandonment thereof, by such possessor or his descendants, the right of occupancy or possession of said lands shall devolve to the United States, and be identified with the right of property ceded hereby. /B/ 2nd - - The United States will guarantee to the Creek nation, the integrity of all their territory eastwardly and northwardly of the said line to be run and described as mentioned in the first article. /C/ 3d - - The United States demand, that the Creek nation abandon all communication, and cease to hold any intercourse with any British or Spanish post, garrison, or town; and that they shall not admit among /D/ them, any agent or trader, who shall not derive authority to hold commercial, or other intercourse with them, by licence from the President or authorized agent of the United States. 4th - - The United States demand an acknowledgment of the right to establish military posts and trading houses, and to open roads within the territory, guaranteed to the Creek nation by the second article, and a right to the free navigation of all its waters. /E/ 5th - - The United States demand, that a surrender be immediately made, of all the persons and property, taken from the citizens of the United States, the friendly part of the Creek nation, the Cherokee, Chickesaw, and Choctaw nations, to the respective owners; and the United States will cause to be immediately restored to the formerly hostile Creeks, all the property taken from them since their submission, either by the United States, or by any Indian nation in amity with the United States, together with all the prisoners taken from them during the war. /F/ 6th - - The United States demand the caption and surrender of all the prophets and instigators of the war, whether foreigners or natives, who have not submitted to the arms of the United States, and become parties to these articles of capitulation, if ever they shall be found within the territory guaranteed to the Creek nation by the second article. /G/ 7th - - The Creek nation being reduced to extreme want, and not at present having the means of subsistance, the United States, from motives of humanity, will continue to furnish gratuitously the necessaries of life, until the crops of corn can be considered competent to yield the nation a supply, and will establish trading houses in the nation, at the discretion of the President of the United States, and at such places as he shall direct, to enable the nation, by industry and economy, to procure clothing. /H/ 8th - - A permanent peace shall ensue from the date of these presents forever, between the Creek nation and the United States, and between the Creek nation and the Cherokee, Chickesaw, and Choctaw nations. /I/ 9th - - If in running east from the mouth of Summochico creek, it shall so happen that the settlement of the Kennards, fall within the lines of the territory hereby ceded, then, and in that case, the line shall be run east on a true meridian to Kitchofoonee creek, thence down the middle of said creek to its junction with Flint River, immediately below the Oakmulgee town, thence up the middle of Flint river to a point due east of that at which the above line struck the Kitchofoonee creek, thence east to the old line herein before mentioned, to wit: the line dividing the lands claimed by the Creek nation, from those claimed and owned by the state of Georgia. /J/ The parties to these presents, after due consideration, for themselves and their constituents, agree to ratify and confirm the preceding articles, and constitute them the basis of a permanent peace between the two nations; and they do hereby solemnly bind themselves, and all the parties concerned and interested, to a faithful performance of every stipulation contained therein.
