Married in 1930 (assuming recently married) puts her in my father's generation and I think I have all his siblings down pretty well and by the time of their generation they were to my uncertain knowledge the only ones left in Screven proper although there were some loose in adjoining Jenkins County that neither Bud nor I have ever gotten a handle on. This bunch often spelled it "Paythress." Mr. Hinely is also a stranger. A. N. Poythress is also a stranger. Was the record Screven OR Effingham? Makes a big difference. If its Screven could be mine or Bud's. If it's Effingham chances are it's Bud's.....or else some branch neither one of us ever heard of. By the time of 1930 Poythresses/Paythresses were two-a-penny down there in that 4-5 county area and the idea of unscrambling all of them, I'm ashamed to say, was intimidating enough to have me trying to fry other fish.
