Hello, I'm also researching my gr gr gr grandfather Nicholas Briskey/Brisky and his family. And in my researching I know around 1830's many families migrated together some first to GA around troup and harris counties and then onto Chambers County, AL and surrounding areas. I have a copy of the heritage of chambers county, al book by heritage publishing company. And in the Index booth spellins appear in many pages. And probably are married into many families. Or church. It might be worth a trip to your local library and ask them to order a copy of the book for you to see through inner library loan dept it's free. I have found many decendents for others this way. And also what is nice that the people who contributed the articles have their names and addresses as contacts for family. Good luck Sandel [email protected] Seattle Surnames: Briskey,Brisky,Brisque,Demastus,Sutton,Meadows,Hodnett,Moore,McIntosh,Leverett, Mark/Merck (States SC, GA, Chambers County, AL, Washington State, TX and france) willing to share and trade
