Looking for passports issued by GA in 1801-2-3 to Middleton's, Ford's, May's, Herring's, Mayfield's and Munday's. They were going to Mississippi Territory, Natchez area. Would appreciate if someone could look this up for me. Thanks. Pauline in AZ

This the first time I have heard about states issuing passports for visits to the frontier. I presume this was done because these areas were not considered part of the U. S. Can you give us more information about this? Were the passports issued by courts, the post office, judicial officers, etc., and where were they kept then and now? ----- Original Message ----- From: <Pollywog1930@aol.com> To: <GEORGIA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2004 12:23 PM Subject: [GEORGIA] PASSPORTS 1801-2-3 > Looking for passports issued by GA in 1801-2-3 to Middleton's, Ford's, May's, > Herring's, Mayfield's and Munday's.
