You have quite a bit of filling in to do. First of all settlers lived in VA, NC and SC long before they got to Georgia. Either they came over later or their move was 100 years after the Mayflower.

Both settled in GA. One brother died childless. The other brother populated the US with his offering, therefore, anyone who can trace back to the surviving brother is related. Only one problem, I can't find out who either brother is. > >I am researching in my husband's family. Very little is known about the ancestors according to the living children. My father-in-law, Vernon was born in the early 1920's in AR. His father Clyde, had at least 2 brothers, Claude and Ross but the rest escapes me now. They all lived in AR. Clyde m. Ethel Debow who had 2 brothers & 2 sisters. Clyde's parents were John R Hodges and Margaret Goad. There are many Goad's in AR. There is some dispute over John's father's name, it could be E.A.
