Thank you Sue, this is what we do on the Cox line, and it certainly does help. My Cox line married Johnson - my GGGrandmother, but I can not find out any information on her. Almarinda Susan Johnson, b. 1830, possibly N.C. or GA. She married my GGGrandfather, John W. Cox, August 29, 1847 - where I also can not find. In the John W. Cox Bible, which I have, Almarinda writes that her name was Johnson, and date of birth and date of marriage, along with her 9 children. She does not write John W. Cox's place of birth only date, 1828. Evidently she did not know where?

Who knows, maybe it will help somebody! I was just looking at a page I copied from the book "Early Records of Georgia" and I saw the name, Joseph B. Johnston who was in Capt. Richard J. Holiday's District and he had 2 draws - whatever that means. This was in Wilkes Co., GA. Sue (Johnson) Howard ==== JOHNSON Mailing List ==== Do not send spam e-mail messages to mailing lists.
