    3. Hi I am looking for information on George C. Gordon b. 1841 in Ky Parents listed from Tenn. I do not know what the C. stands for could it be Cornelius? Do you have any George in your line? I have some unusual names as well. Orvie, Ola, most of the men have George in there name as a second name. Family stories refer to George as George "Stonewall" Gordon, but have not found him in the Civil war either? Thanks, LaNelda [email protected] wrote: > Hello > > We do not have common Gordons.

GORDON was a man of considerable force of character and in 1849 was elected Representative from Walker County. His sons were Thomas M.[,] William, Clark and Cicero GORDON.
