Surnames: Tanner Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SFB.2ACI/4743.1.1 Message Board Post: Audrey, this person could be a decendant of the John Tanner I am looking for. I just don't know at this point. I would probably need some sort of information of John's parents and other cities before Atlanta. I don't know my John Tanner's mother's name. She may have been born in the carolinas or virignia, I don't know. There are many John Tanner's. There is a line in Washington Co., GA. I don't think that one is mine, but could be related somehow. Good hunting.
