Those of you on my SC lists with me, will get this more than once...guess we end up oftentimes with the same folks in certain areas cause our kin traveled the same paths. Kinda neat to me. S Good Sunday Afternoon to All, Could anyone possibly offer any further information on the following James GRIFFIN family from South Carolina? I am trying to find out the parents of my ggg-grandmother Susannah, [GRIFFIN] also written on the 1860 Census as "Susan A." She is the Susannah listed directly below married to George Washington Driver. 1850 Ware County, GA Census page 117B Line 7, Dwelling number/Family Number 432 89th Subdivision 7 432 George Driver 30 M 8 Susannah " 19 F 9 William " 1 M If the James listed below is her father, he would have been around the age of 28 at her birth, realizing that these Census ages given, can be 'off a few' in either direction. Ware County, Georgia 1840 Federal Census 590th District, G.M. Enumerated by Randal McDonald Free White Inhabitants Page 144 Each "0" represents a place holder for the 13 age ranges, unless a person(s) for that age is found, then of course the number found in the household for that age replaces the "0" [same range for males and females] AGES: 0-4, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, 20-30, 30-40, 40-50, 50-60, 60-70, 70-80, 80-90,90-100, 100 - + 26 GRIFFIN, James 1401000100000-1012010000000 ========================================== 1850 Ware County, GA Census 89th Subdivision Line Number 29, Dwelling/Family Number 57 page 88 29 57 James Griffin 47 M Farmer 600 SC 30 Nancy 47 F GA 31 James 21 M Farmer GA 32 Edward 17 M Farmer GA 33 Alford 14 M Farmer GA 34 Ellen 12 F GA 35 Washington 10 M GA 36 William Shumans 17 M Farmer GA Any help appreciated.

Sharon, Here's what I have on this James Griffin, who is one of my direct ancestors. Your Susannah is not listed among the descendents that I have in my database. Looking at the 1840 census data that you listed for the females, there were 1 dau between age 0-4 (that would have been Ellender), 1 daughter between ages 10-15 (Sarah), 2 between ages 15-20 (Nancy and someone else - I'm not sure who since the death date I have for Nicey is 1833) and 1 older female who is the wife Nancy Burnside Griffin. Hopefully we have others on the list who can add more. Regards, Cathye Griffin Betzel http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/b/e/t/Cathye-Griffin--Betzel 1. JAMES3 GRIFFIN, SR.
