Listmembers, I am looking for an Augustus H. JONES who was in Baker Co., GA 1840. Augustus was quite well to do---he had a large number of slaves; an overseer, tailors, etc. living on his land; the value to his real estate was high. Augustus was born in GA according to the census, but there was an Augustus JONES in Burke Co. for awhile. That Augustus JONES might have been born NC. There are few Baker and Burke Co. records [except census] for the time period of interest. I am hoping to contact a descendant or other researcher. A James TEDDAR/ER was in Burke Co., GA 1820 living on the next property to William WEST. I am hoping to contact a descendant or TEDDER/AR researcher who has additional information, again, due to the dearth of records in both Baker and Burke Counties, GA. Any help/clues/sources appreciated. Thank you. Fran fpowellsr@starpower.net
