Re: Wilkes County, Georgia Tax Records, 1785-1805. Thanks, Harold, for the plug. All copies of these books left were gifted to two organizations committed to use the profits to preserve the "loose records" in Georgia Courthouses. Both have sets for sale at reduced prices. Georgia Genealogical Society http://www.GaGenSociety.org Augusta Genealogical Society http://www.augustagensociety.org/ I am no longer physically able to pack and mail the books. The above two organizations and the Georgia Historical Records Advisory Board have received all the profits from the sale of over nine hundred sets of books. Secretary of State Cathy Cox and Georgia Historical Records Advisory Board honored me last Fall with an Award for Advocacy at a reception at the new Georgia State Archives building in Morrow, GA. I have received many awards for my work, but never before and award for Advocacy. Wow! Frank Parker Hudson

And was it ever deserved! I noticed in the recent Georgia Genealogicial Society magazine that Frank Parker Hudson had sent in the first contribution of the year to the Georgia Archives Intern Project. Frank has made many contributions to those of us researching ancestors in Georgia, and the majority probably not properly recognized. Thank you Frank. W.
