I have been told that my Miles Jordan married a Mahala Blue, supposedly in SC or NC but who knows, could be in VA. He died in Sept 1815 and left a daughter about maybe 3 years old. Her name was Mahala and she was in Columbia County, Georgia when he died. She received land in the 1820 land lottery for being his orphan. There was also a Mildred (Milly) Jordan, widow that drew land in Dooley County at the same time, this could be the wife of Miles, I have not been able to prove Mahala Blue or Mildred, also have not proved who Mahala (Haley/Halie) Jordan, orphan of Miles Jordan married, but she had three children (one son and two daughters) with their last name being Jordan, and she gift deeded her property to them on May 8th, 1838 and married Hensley Landers in Columbia County, Georgia on May 10th, 1838 and had three more daughters by the Landers. Miles was in service at the time of his death, if I understood the records right. Any help would be appreciated. will be glad to exchange information.
