Macon County was created in 1837 BUT, in 1857 the courthouse records were burned, thereby loosing the first 20 years of the county records except those that were RE-RECORDED by some individuals. > No records of John Goff, III found in 1838 Macon Co., Ga. Tax Digest. None in 1840 Census or Deed Book "A", the first to be recorded after the fire. > There is no mention in the "History of Macon County". Wish I had more. > Davine. > > > This is an automatically-generated notice. > > <http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/MaconWill?admin> > > >
