    3. I thought I'd take advantadge of my husband sleeping late this morning, and let everyone know about the names that I added to my family, while we visited in GA. Before we left I only knew that my grt.grandfather was Henry SMITH. I now know that his middle initial is L, and that instead of being born in GA, he was most likely born in the area of Lake City, FL. I'm guessing that he was born around 1850-60. I do, however, now know that my grt.grandmother, Mildred Herring, was born in 1860 in the area of Pearson, GA, and she was the daughter of Hiram HERRIN and Martha WILLIAMS. Hiram HERRIN>Levi HERRIN Charity SEARS Martha WILLIAMS>John WILLIAMS Nancy SMITH>Rev.Williams Mary PLATT I was a little dismayed to find another Smith in my line. That name is sure giving me trouble. We met a really nice couple in Fitzgerald, GA while we there, and wound up staying in their home. It was really interesting. Their last name is Davis, and I mentioned that my dad used to farm with someone in Pearson, GA, named Harley Davis, and that my parents lived in a house on the Harley Davis property. Found out that Billy Davis, where we stayed, and Harley Davis are cousins, and that when my parents moved out of the house on the Davis property, Billy and his parents moved into it. It really is a small world. It would really be nice to find out that some of you are related. I would really appreciate any help that you can give me. Especially on my SMITH line. Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Donna
