Posted on: Tioga Co. NY Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/Tioga/10213 Surname: GEORGIA ------------------------- Looking in Tompkins Co., NY, also in Chemung, Tioga and Delaware Cos., NY,for GEORGIA family, possible descendants of Elijah and Kezia Stewart GEORGIA or perhaps Miles GEORGIA or yet another GEORGIA. Elijah and Kezia were said to have been the first marriage of record in the town of Meredith, Delaware Co, running away to marry fall of 1796. Many members of this family migrated and settled in Tompkins, Tioga and Chemung Cos., NY State, and then further west into Iowa and other states. So far in Delaware Co. we are back to Elmer and Orpha Jane GEORGIA b. ca 1826 and 1830 respectively in NY and having children Colace Eugene, Birge, Sophronia, Dwight, Valdimar (aka Val and Homer) and others. Possible parents of Elmer are E. B. and Electa GEORGIA found in 1850 census as parents of Moses, Abiah, and William. They are the only other GEORGIA family in Town of Davenport, Delaware Co., NY, 1850 and ages fit. Elmer and family are in Davenport in 1850, ‘55, ‘60, ‘65 census records. They are found in Franklin, Delaware Co., in 1880 census. Val/Homer marries Ida Turner and they are in town of Milford, Otsego Co., NY in 1892 and 1900 census records. We have descendants of Val/Homer and Ida Turner GEORGIA and would like more information of ancestry, vital records of dates and places of births, deaths, marriages, burials, etc.
