Twiggs was formed 1809 from Wilkinson County which was formed 1803. Neither are in the 1820 Ga. census. There were other counties enumerated, so why not Twiggs and where are the people in Twiggs enumerated if they are. The 1818 Twiggs County Tax Digest lists Philip (my 4th grandfather), Henry, Elijah, and William Bailey. Philip and Elijah not listed in any 1820 Ga. census. There are two Henrys in Oglethorpe, and 5 Williams in various counties. I know Philip bought land 1822 in Houston County and is in the 1830 Houston County census. Would appreciate any comments or suggestions.
