Been awhile so I thought I would repost families I am working on. Have heard from a researcher that Augustine and Hannah WELLS McCarty [yes Hannah WELLS!] had a son Madison born 1814 that went to Burke Co., Ga. She is supposed to have Bible records. Anyone have family that went to Burke co., Ga or know of early Wells family that Hannah may fit into? Joanne My direct lines [Earliest known ancestors] Solomon STATON born 1792 Va. He is son or grandson of Thomas Staton born abt 1740. Thomas is from Rockbridge or Amherst Co., Va., possibly. Malinda MC CLAIN m. Solomon Staton 1821. She was daughter of Hannah -------Mcclain McCarty Norris. Hannah was adm of estate of Augustine McCarty. From family records and hearsay the four McCartys in Bath Co., James, William, John and Andrew Jackson were brothers and sons of Hannah. Hannah was born in SC abt 1786 and was married to a McClain who supposedly died on the trip to KY. She then married to Augustine McCarty and had a large family.
