Thank you, Carol, for all the great info. I'll try to put it together and see what else I can come up with. They were part of the Young family, and it is really very large. I was thinking that these Coalsons might be related to the Screven County Colsons. -----Original Message----- From: gascreve-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:gascreve-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Carol Miller Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2008 9:05 AM To: GASCREVE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GASCREVE] FW: Edward Blackshear Coalson;correction, Paul Coalson, Braswell connection Paul Colson was the first husband of Elizabeth Blackshear, Henry Wyche the second.

Elizabeth Blackshear was a daughter of Edward Blackshear ane Emily Goodwin Mitchell. Her first husband was Henry Wyche and her second husband was Paul Coalson. He was born in Burke Co Ga and was a lawyer. Some sites at Rootsweb have Edward Blackshear Coalson as their son, so I think that is probably your answer. There is actually quite a bit of information on the Blackshears and some of these other families. The history of Melrose plantation is interesting, you should look it up.
