He was born on December 1st, I am not sure what year and that he was in the service with my daddy and served aboard the USS Sam Houston in the mid 60's and was stationed in New London, CT during 1963, 1964, around that time. Thanks for your response. Linda

Hi, Donna-- Thank you very much for this lookup. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to place the Vestina BRANAN (?) who married Samuel Montgomery. There certainly are a lot of possibilities here. Anyhow: thanks again. I promise I'll leave you alone for awhile. You deserve all the rest you can get. walt [email protected] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donna Wall" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 10, 2001 11:04 AM Subject: [GATALBOT] BRANHAN, BRACHAN, BRANNER, BRANNON > >From "1850 Census of GA (Talbot Co.)(Nearly 7,800 Free Citizens)" compiled > by Rhea Cumming Otto: > > #795 BRANHAN?

Can you find Salathia/Seleta/Selatha Dickson/Dixon? She was probably with one of her children. I think she had sons named Stephen and John and a couple of others that I don't have names for. Her daughters married William Spear (mine, I found them when the census was on-line), probably Eldridge Adams, John Heath, and William Heath, possibly others that I haven't found names for.
