Felton > EMAIL: SWTBCK@AOL.COM > DATE: Dec 16 2000 > QRYTEXT: I have been able to trace my great grandfather John Henry Felton to Macon County, Georgia through the 1870 Census. he and his family migrated to Mississippi between 1870 and 1980 because I can identify him in the 1880 for Mississippi. > I am trying to obtain slave records for that period. Based on the 1850 Census William Felton had 5 male slaves aged 5 yrs at that time which would have been the age of my great-grandfather. Also, the 1856 Will and Testament of John R. Felton list a total of 17 slaves and his brother William Felton was one of the Trustees of his estate. > I would appreciate and information concerning slave records or practices during that time period.. > > > This is an automatically-generated notice. > > <http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/MaconWill?admin> > >
