Hello Diane The Griffins & Myricks lived very close to the Wilkinson & Twiggs County line, most of the Myricks lived in Wilkinson except the one that built the mill located on Big Sandy Creek, he owned about 8 thousand acres there, the road is named Myricks Mill Rd., which as you know is where I live.. The Griffins lived very close to there, before some of them moved to Jeffersonville. I have lots of info on both families, my family has a lot of connections to these families... Brenda's GG Grandfather William Benjamin Myrick & GGG Grandfather Nathaniel Jonie Myrick also her GGGG Grandfather Benjamin V. Vinson........her GG Gradmother Cora Lee Sanders & GGG Grandmother Mary V. Vinson & GGGG Grandmother Arminto Rogers are buried in the Clear Creek Cemetery Cecil

Cecil, Do you know which Griffin family lived on the road that goes from Hwy 80 over to I 16 that goes by the Twiggs County School? The Griffin house had a long row of trees that led up to it. If you were going from Jeffersonville toward I 16 the house was on the left. Watson's dairy was on the right and the Cannon house was on down from Watson's on the right. I would like to know which Griffin family this was and if any of them have any land records of this farm that they would be willing to share. My grandfather, James A. McCallum, owned this farm when he died in 1949. Thank you for your help. betty in ga ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cecil Fountain" <cecil_fountain@yahoo.com> To: <GATWIGGS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, July 23, 2004 8:30 PM Subject: Re: [GATWIGGS] Twiggs County Griffins and Myricks > Hello Diane > The Griffins & Myricks lived very close to the Wilkinson & Twiggs > County line, most of the Myricks lived in Wilkinson except the one that > built the mill located on Big Sandy Creek, he owned about 8 thousand acres > there, the road is named Myricks Mill Rd., which as you know is where I > live.. > The Griffins lived very close to there, before some of them moved to > Jeffersonville.
