The Pike County Journal Zebulon, Pike County, Georgia: September 9, 1892 Uncle Frank Joiner who lives near Molena, and who is one of the oldest men in the county, being over 89, was married in Zebulon by Dr. Redding last week to Miss Ella Ward. The marriage occurred in the parlor of the Ballard house, and was quite interesting. The tax books show that the groom has a farm of 65 acres of land in the western portion of the county. This was transferred by deed to Miss Ward, who is perhaps 40 years of age, and the marriage ceremony was then promptly performed. (Transcribed 10/24/02 Lynn Cunningham) Note: At the Creamer Family Cemetery, Molena, Georgia Frank Joiner, d. 1908 Ella W. Joiner, b. 22 Sept 1864, d. 7 Mar 1938 Charles Joiner, b. 22 Feb 1893, d. 5 Feb 1930
WOW, Lynn, I loved this one, even if it isn't in my family. Doris ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lynn B.
