Ron, Thank you so much for this information. You have made my day. God bless you. Betty

In between the years of 1901-1908, my grandfather , Frank Dodd , worked as a tanner . Does anyone know of a place around Lower Young Cain, Union Co Ga, where he could have worked? He lived with wife Cornelia, sons Charles, Glenn and in-laws Tom and Rebecca Cunningham not far from Condidence Church. I'm looking for any information. I would appreciate any help, thanks Mabel Dodd Johnson [email protected]

Betty, Go to the Union County rootsweb page at the following address: http://www.rootsweb.com/~gaunion/newspapers.html I sent this list to the website myself after renting a couple of newspapers on microfilm.

Posted on: Union Co. GA Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/Union/677 Surname: Harkins, Culbertson, Freeman, Ward, Joyce, Morris ------------------------- Sorry I can't help you with ENGLAND of Union County, GA., but I noticed you also have HARKINS. My relative was Thomas (J. or S.) HARKINS. Born in N.C. C1828. Wife Nancy Taylor of N.C. Moved to Union County between 1850 & 1852. Second Child, Mary Elizabeth (Lizzie Beth) born in Union County C1852. Thomas died in Haywood County, N.C. but was taken back to Union County, GA to the "place he loved" for burial. I have not found the place yet. Could you be in this line of HARKINS? Would love to hear from you

Posted on: Union Co. GA Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/Union/676 Surname: LOFTIS, LOFTUS, PARTIN, PARTON, PARTEN ------------------------- ANDREW JACKSON LOFTUS married AGNES PARTIN/PARTON in 1880 after the 1880 census was taken. On the list of road commissioners for 1903-04 ANDREW J. LOFTIS/LOFTUS was listed for Gum Log Dist. On the 1920 census for Union Co. is the following: 116 Loftis, Andrew 62 H (son of Robert Marion and Margaret Caroline Loftis) and Agnes W 61. His parents are buried in Antioch Cem. in Ivy Log. I have seen no trace of them other than what is mentioned above. Would like to know if they had children and where they were between 1880 and 1903 in Gum Log. Did not find them on any of your censuses. Also, does anyone know when they died or their place of burial? Andrew was called Andy Loftis and Agnes was called Aggie, at least by her family. Agnes was the daughter of John S. Partin and Harriet Kilpatrick. Any info or suggestions greatly appreciated.

Pat, I have ADKISSONs from GA/AL to TX. Have we discussed them before?

Greetings: I need Help! I have a strong hunch about this, it adds up, but I have no proof as yet. How would one get a copy of The Benton Co., Arkansas Atlas of 1903 which carried the history of the William Elisha Garrett family, along with a picture of the family home in 1903-furnished by Mr. Alvin Seamster of Garfield, Arkansas in 1964. All I need is the story about the Benton County Garrett family. I am beginning to believe that William Elisha Garrett, born April 14, 1840 in North Carolina, died December 04, 1910 in Benton County, Arkansas was my great great grandfather. I have reason to believe that his first wife was Caroline Daniels (possibly Asley C. Daniels) both would have been born in Georgia. William Elisha Garrett, son of James Henry Garrett & Susannah Mashburn. William & his parents are on the 1850 Union County, Georgia Census & also on 1860 Census, Fannin Co., Ga. In the 1860 Fannin County Census he is listed as Elisha, not William Elisha & 20 years old & a farmer. William founded Springtown, Arkansas & my great grandfather Benjamin F. Garrett was born in Springtown, Arkansas on October 19, 1870. Also Benjamin married Susan Lewis in Benton Co. ,Arkansas by W. M. Garrett, J. P. All I can document is that William Elisha Garrett b: 14 Apr. 1840 N.C. d: 4 Dec. 1910 Benton Co., Ark. Married 6 Apr. 1871 Benton Co., Ar. to a Mrs. Mary Ellen Culberson Starke. He homesteaded 101 acres of land just north of Springtown in Section 6, Twp. 18 North of Range 32 West in July 1870 (Book H, page 403). Source is The Mashburn Family History Book, of which I was sent a copy of a part with the Union County Garretts. This would have made William 31 years old if this had been his first marriage. Plenty of time for him to have been married first to Caroline/Asley C. Daniels & had a child by the name of Benjamin Franklin Garrett b: October 19, 1870. I have no proof yet. I need to either be able to prove this theory or disapprove it completely. Thank You Gayle M. Garrett <[email protected]>

Greetings I need some questions answered before I know which one is really mine. I need some documentation or family knowledge. One of the 2 Elisha Garretts below was my great great granddad. (1) Elisha Garrett b: abt. 1849 to William E. Garrett & Mary Mashburn. They are in both the 1850 Union Co. Ga. Census & 1860 Fannin Co. Ga. Census. (2) Elisha Garrett b: abt. 1840 to James Garrett & Susannah Mashburn, also listed in the 1850 Union Co. Ga. Census. Does anyone know which Elisha married a Caroline Daniels (Possibly Asley C. Daniels) & If they had a son named Benjamin F. Garrett. My Elisha Garrett ended up in Benton County, Arkansas where my Great grandfather Benjamin Franklin Garrett was born Oct. 19, 1870. I know that James & some of his family moved to Benton County, Arkansas. It would help if I knew when they moved. This could put their son, Elisha in Benton Co., Arkansas. I also figure it is possible for William & Mary's son, Elisha to have followed his uncle to Benton Co., Arkansas. If I had a date of James family making the move, it would tell me how old their son, Elisha was at the time. If he was still very young, then he probably made the trip with them, If older maybe not. Any information & or Suggestions would be very much appreciated. I am willing to share what I have with you. {I am a guy) with the name Gayle you don't always know <grin> Thank You Gayle M.
