Hello. I'm new to this list and was wondering if anyone out there could help me locate a family for my William Brown. He was born ca. 1770-75. He married Nancy Ann Adams (daughter of Robert and Mary Adams. On March 1811 a Georgia Passport was issued to Robert Adams and family to travel to Amite County, Ms. At the time William and his family were living in the Barnwell District, SC. I would appreciate hearing from anyone that help me carry my line back to SC. I would appreciate any documentation you may have and sources. Thanks. Joe

> On March 1811 a Georgia Passport was issued to . > Did other states ( I am interested in SC mainly) issue passports?? How do you find passports that were issued in GA?? What about SC???

There is a book, "PASSPORTS OF SOUTHEASTERN PIONEERS 1770 - 1823." The author is Dorothy Potter Williams. Included are these: Indian, Spanish and other land passports for Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, Mississippi, Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
