    1. [QUEEN] Queen Searching
    2. Hi Queen List Spent part of this past week digging for Queens in North Ga. and N. C. Monday the wife and I played like ducks in the rain. We checked out three Cool Springs Church cemeteries. One was in Tate, GA, one near Price, GA, and one between Clarkesville and Helen Ga. There were no Queens buried at the cemetery in Tate. We were lucky enough to talk to the church secretary. They had a ledger of the cemetery there. I found one Hogan there which is my material grandmother's surname. needless to said I will surly check this out. We talked to a gentleman in a restaurant where we had stopped about Queens. Bingo, he knew of a Queen who lived near there in Tate. The gentle man was nice enough to give my phone number to Mr. Queen, and he called the next day. We didn't get back home until Thursday. I returned his called and he was eager to discuss the Queens. He had been working on his wife's family and is just getting started on the Queens. It is his understanding that there is or was there sets of Queen's in Fannin Co. According to him they do not/did not claim kin to each other. (I've hear that before) He mention that he had heard of a Grayson Queen but couldn't give me any detail about him. It is Grayson, Granson, or Grandson I'm still lost on this one. Question; Are any of you familiar with the Daws or Dawson ledgers. If so would one of you familiarize me with it. Next we visited Clarkesville/Habersham County Library. Found a Ransom Queen 1921-1944 was in WW2 and a Rhoda Queen 1886-1972. Still haven't found the Cool Springs Church where Joseph H. is supposed to be buried. Although there are a lot of unmarked graves in the cemeteries we visited. Jimmy O. Redmond, Sr.
