Hello --- Anyone in Screven Co. researching any of the above names? Some or all of these Names were in Screven Co[also Burke and Telfair] in 1780s and early 1800s and some probably are still there. Would like to share - Joyce [ Feazell] just read your email.----we must be cousins of some degree- I descend from 1]James [R/S] McMullen and Sarah Minton Vick* their son 2]James McMullen* and Rebecca Fain*, d/o Thomas[R/S] Fain and Mary Parramore their son 3] Malcolm L. McMullen and Martha Jane Wills . their daughter 4] Mary Rebecca McMullen [1867-1960] and John Quincy Adams, my mother's parents. Malcolm[1840-1909] was the 12th child and 7th son of James and Rebecca. All seven sons and at least one of their five daughters settled in Florida,[ my home.] Is this your line, Joyce or are you of William and Lavinia Fain's family.? I have lots of data on both families. Lets do share. Regards, Steph Powell Cecil stephaxi@mindspring.com

Harvey - Thanks anyway for the McMullen et al lookup-- how fine of you to do this for us !!! Steph Powell Cecil

Reseachers, Pick a word like - Curiosity. Why is it necessary for eveyone on this LIST be bombarded with chit chat about the "Little Horse Creek Baptist Cemetery". Useful infromation is alway appreciated. However, when I receive 15 messages that bascially says "Is this your family? or, no not mine" These type of response should be directed to an individual e-mail addresss and not the LIST address. If you do not know the senders address, click on "FORWARD" and you will find the senders e-mail address in the From: line.

Hi list. I could not help but snicker at the frustration of others on this list who are not cousins. The main reason for back and forth on the list is, basically, pretty much everyone early on was related some way or another, and it really helps those of us trying to sort out the different children of everybody who named each child after their 'each others'...please bear with us. It really helps when someone shows up NOT buried somewhere, even if it is just eliminating another place to have to search. I know it is nerve wracking for outside folks, but it really helps some of us. Thanks for everyone's help, big or little.

Hi Harvey. Have I asked you this before? Is there a Young marriage to your Knight line way back, c. 1760's maybe? Or earlier? Also, are you familiar with a John Knight, who, in 1794, gave some property to Mrs. Mary Henderson and her minor children, Anne, Mysey, Mary, Sarah, children of Zachariah Henderson? Recorded in Deed Book C & D, page 190, Effiingham County, GA?

Harvey: I have the Greiner family all the way back to Germany. I wrote four articles on the family in the "History of Screven County" in 1989. What I really need is the Waters line. If you can help or point me to someone who can. Sincerely, Bob HarvJK@aol.com wrote: > Bob: > Crawford Aaron and Martha Hughes Waters were my grandparents on my mother's > side.

Judy, Have you heard how Mrs Jarrells is doing Dot

Steph: Sorry, none of those names are listed. Harvey

Billie: The church was established in 1832 but the earliest burial I see is 1863. There is no Georgia Waters listed. My Knight line came into the New England states in the early 1600's and spread into Oklahoma, Kansas and Illinois. Probably other places too. I'm still working on it and keep finding new cousins all the time. I don't think I appreciated the amount of work this involved when I got started. It's a good thing it's like a treasure hunt or many of us would drop by the wayside. Regards, Harvey

Harvey: I am looking for my ggggrandfather James R/S McMullen [ or any of that name] and Vick, Minton, Fain or Parramore. Thanks for the lookup!! Steph Powell Cecil stephaxi@mindspring.com

>Hi Harvey -I am descended from the Georgia Waters who subsequently settled >in Florida. Are there any Tombstones for the mid-1800's? Also, I am searching Knights who settled in and around Savannah and Beaufort, late 1700's and also migrated into Fla. namely, Zachariah Knight and sons, Brittain,George, and Elias. Any connection? Billie

Where is this ledger? What years does it cover? Have missed any previous communications on this ledger. Thanks. Diane in Ohio ( from Sarah Mock line) -----Original Message----- From: VKRatliff@aol.com <VKRatliff@aol.com> To: GASCREVE-L@rootsweb.com <GASCREVE-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Sunday, April 16, 2000 5:53 PM Subject: [GASCREVE] The "Mock Ledger" Bob Peavy, et al: Here is the way it is in my records. I do not recall having ever seen an actual photocopy of this ledger page. I do, however, remember that on reading/copying it and noting its source I gave this "snippet of material" a lot of credibility when I first saw it. The syntax however, I think I recognize as my own so I will not place it in quotes: In the instance of Hester Wilder Mock, in 1794 a Burke County Court Record book with remaining blank pages was sold to Harry Wilder, who then began to record daily business transactions of sundry nature. Next Wilder's son Isaac Wilder inherited the book and used it for even more varied purposes, one of which was to record the births of various Wilder family members. Listed (among others) are the name and birth dates of Hester Wilder's children by Meredith Poythress: George Washington Poythress b. 13 Jan 1819 John White Poythress b. 13 Jan 1821 Henrietta Poythress b. 7 Dec 1823 Sarah Edwards Poythress b. 14 Nov 1826 Isaac Edmon Poythress b. 28 May 1828 In my original records, I recorded this as "Hester Wilder's children by Meredith Poythress, Jr., likely (and sinfully) editorizing with respect to the "Jr." which at the time I felt sure was correct. I now have serious doubts on this and am leaning to your version which has Meredith Poythress, Sr. as the husband of Hester Wilder Mock. I will leave "Jr." or "Sr" unstated (as I suspect the original did) and let the reader make up his or her own mind. Also to be noted is the fact that husband Benjaman T. Mock, Hester's sons, and Grandville Beville are not suprisingly given short shrift in this account. Best, Maynard Poythress

Joyce, My husband is the CASON in the family. His family is from Pierce County.
