I am searching for stories of Georgians who served during the Indian wars and their the civilians that were killed in these wars. If you have any information I would greatly appreciate any data you have. Many times the only accounts of those that died are in newspapers. I am hoping that by transcribing and gathering data from newspapers I can help someone find their brick wall. If a place was burned and the entire family killed, often times the only way to discover what happened is through newspaper and stories handed down by family members. http://www.rootsweb.com/~gagwmil/ Thanking you in advance for any help you may have.
