Hi Barb, I ran across some more information on the Hillis family name while I was researching some other material in the Georgia Room of the Screven County Library. There is an interesting book there entitled: "A Great Heritage - An Overview of Some of the Families of Burke, Emanuel, Jefferson, Screven, and Jenkins Counties, Georgia, and Abroad" Compiled by DAVID HILLIS - Girard, Georgia - First Edition, 1991. GR 975.86 HIL There are six pages of family history for the Hillis family. This is one of the longer sections. For the Oglesby family there four different histories. The first is a one page section; the second is also one page in length, as is the third, however - the fourth is three pages in length. There are 71 family histories provided across 116 pages. Most are short. The four different Oglesby histories are placed on six pages. The Hillis family is contained on six pages. The families of interest to myself are the Royal and Reddick families - the former occupied four pages, while the latter also covered four pages. Thus, these seven family histories account for twenty pages of the family histories section. The remaining 64 entries are spread across the remaining 96 pages. I hope that can find some more information on Hillis relations in this work of DAVID HILLIS. Dale
