Margaret Hello, Thanks for the pictures, I do not know who the guys are at the beach. and it says Tybee so that is just across from me. the way the crow flies. It looks like with the swim suits it may be in the 1920's and the one standing looks like he should belong to the Williams family. The younger one looks like a Williams cousin about my age when he was in his twenties. Dp you suppose it could be Oscar Williams standing, During the 20/30 they would have had to ride a train to Tybee. I remember Mama took us there one time when we were really little.

For those of you who are interested the "Of One Dozen Sassers" by Claudia Chitwood Weller, I spoke to her Saturday. She lives here in Orlando and is a very bright, interesting person. She became interested in researching her family after a member of her family showed her some information on the Sassers but was unable to put it together. She is from Grady Co.Ga.She had never been to Screven County until she started the research . She found her first information from a estate filing by Thomas Sasser who named all 12 children, but I count 13..Thus the title "of One Dozen Sassers".1.

Hi Dale: I just went by that cemetery today. My aunt told me it was the Zeigler cemetery. The large white house close to the cemetery has been handed down to each generation for quite some time. Harvey

Looking for my g.father (Henry David Kemp B. March 9, 1870 D. March 6, 1948) first wife name, they had one child Ray Kemp. Thanks for any help David Kemp davidk@whitelion.net

Hi all. The following I found on the American Revolution list. There have been many inquiries about land grants and lotteries, the how-to's, what if's, where, who and when, I thought it might be revealing of where to look in reference to from whence they originated, and so I forwarded the following. It can still be confusing to me, even after 5 years of diligent search for ancestors and their migrations from place to place, and WHY they moved! A lot had to deal with where the new land awards for service, etc. were. Hope this helps some.

Thanks, Cecelia. I have been looking for Brumett for everso long and can't seem to find him except in the Waynesboro Burke County census which lists him thus: The 1880 census of Burke County Georgia, dwelling #697 family #698. The head of household is Elizabeth Brinson, age 48 and a widow and farmer living with her is her family as follows: Thomas 22; Jennie 20; BRUMETT 18; William 14; Lizzie 12; Fannie 10; Sarah 9; and grandson Adam 6. I believe Elizabeth Brinson is the widow of Stephen B Brinson. I believe Brumett their son married Eolah Brown Langley(Married in Waynesboro Burke County, Georgia on 17 December 1884.) which would make Brumett and Eolah my great grandparents. Nina Elizabeth Brinson married Atticus Roland Brown, my grandparents. Nina's Mother and Atticus' Mother were sisters thereby maiing them 1st cousins. Somebody out there must know something about Stephen B. and Elizabeth A. Brinson and somebody must know about Brumett. If anyone knows - please let me know. With this information does anyone have any information about Brumett Brinson???

Thanks Judy, Dot

Hi Dot, I just looked at a Screven Co. road map and couldn't quite match up the directions you give with what is represented on the map. I also looked at a Jenkins Co. road map to the West of Bay Branch and couldn't find a match to what you describe. However, if I reverse your directions along Millen Highway (GA 21) and head back towards Sylvania, then I find an unnamed cemetary (unnamed on the map) that -'sort of'- matches what you describe. Go a mile or so towards Sylvania and turn South on Indian Trail Rd. Turn onto Rocky Ford road and head West from Zeigler. Between Zeigler and and the big curve (the really big curve between Zeigler and Woodcliff) there is a cemetary lying on the North side of Rocky Ford Rd. Perhaps someone else on the list can name that cemetary. Also, there is another unnamed cemetary (unnamed on the map) just to the East of the junction of Bay Branch and Kettle Creek Rd. This is just North of the Bay Branch intersection with Millen Highway. Perhaps someone else on the list can name this second 'unnamed' cemetary that I see. There are also several other "named" cemetaries shown on the road map in the Bay Branch area. I'll pull out my topographic maps and try to locate a cemetary in the area of Bay Branch that isn't shown on the county road maps. A last resort for you would be to try identifying a lost cemetary from the county tax maps. This isn't so easy, since only larger sites appear as separate entities on the tax maps. But, it is a possibility. Dale E. Reddick ________________________________ K8888yle@aol.com wrote: > Hello All > > Thought I would try again. > > Can you help with the JOYNER BOLTON BRINSON CEMETERY?

Can you help with the JOYNER BOLTON BRINSON CEMETERY? I have a page,which I do not know how I came by it. the address is take Millen Highway to cross roads 2 miles from Bay Branch. Trun left and go up hill. Turn to right, take a dirt road to curve on left. There will be some barns on left which mark the old Brinson home site. Leave car and walk around a fence that is perpendicular to road. You will see a few tall weeds that mark the site of this cemetery very near. This fence divides Edward Brinson's land from his cousin, Mrs Lexie Brinson Brown. The cemetery is on Mrs. Brown's land. Mrs Lexie Brown said that when she was a child a school house and the first Bay Branch Church were near the Cemetery and oak tree. >> I think I have seen this on the Genweb cemetery lists. Try looking there. Judy

Judy. Seems a little mix-up here. I did not request the info on the Hodges/Hurst Query but so that you may get the info to the right person I am advising you of the mix-up. But thanks anyway Judy. Alfred

Thanks Alfred-The mother of Jesse Hurst b. 1780 (h/o of Mary Hodges) was a Mrs. Mary Lane. Judy Mason 2jv@bellsouth.net
