In a message dated 98-03-12 10:31:27 EST, you write: << Nix families that also went to Ga? >> I don't have any records of who Cisro Valentine Nix'es bro & sisters or parents were. But, I do remember seeing other Nixes in Ga. when I studied census records. Living nearby Cisro in 1850 in Cherokee Co. was John L. Nix (b 1801 SC) and his wife Elvira (b1800 SC). I have always felt this might be Cisro's father. Others in this area were Thomas Nix (b 1819 SC) and his wife Bonnetta and three children. Also in the same area in 1850 in Cherokee Co. Ga were Elizabeth Ann (Nix) Lindsey and her husband Lawson C. Lindsey and their daughter Josephine, age 1. This couple wound up having 10 children and Elizabeth died in 1875 in Tuscumbia, Alabama. Her husband and children then moved to Grayson Co., Texas about 1880 or 1881. Someone years ago sent me this information about Elizabeth Nix. Because of her age, birthplace and residence in Cherokee Co., I thought she might be Cisro's sister. Another Nix in Cherokee Co. in 1850 was Charley Nix, b 1776 SC, and his wife Sarah, b 1775 SC. I have felt that Charley(age 74 on 1850 census) was the father of John L. Nix (age 49 in 1850) and that John L. was the father of Cisro Valentine (age 25 in 1850), Thomas, Elizabeth Ann and somewhere I picked up the name of a Nancy Nix in this area at the same time. By the way, Valentine was used as a name for Nix men several times. There was a Valentine Nix listed on the Georgia land lottery, I think about 1827. There were several Nixes who got land in the Ga. land lottery. There were also other Nixes in Cherokee Co., in 1850 but not living in the close vicinity of these that I've mentioned above. They were Hiram Nix, Mary Nix, Larkin Nix and another John Nix with a large family. There were also a number of Nix families in Habersham Co., Ga in 1840. Hope all this helps. Chris Rodriguez
