Hello, I'm also researching the same area for my gr gr gr grandfather Nicholas Briskey/Brisky and his wife Elizabeth Mark/Merk. Around 1789. Anyway in my researching I found that many of the families seemed to migrate together around 1830's land grants and land lotterys became available. Many moved to GA and then onto Chambers County,AL and arounding areas. I have a book called the Heritage of Chambers County,AL by Heritage Publishing. You maybe able to obtain a copy to look at through your local library inner library loan dept. It's usually free. In the Index lists several pages of hawkins,Kelly, I don't see Looper. I have found many decendents for other families through this book. And names and addresses of decendents who submitted the materials are their for contact. Great book. And also, a good book to get is "Reason for the Tears" By Bobby Lindsey chuck full of valuable info on early settlers of the area. And also 1832 Gold Lottery Book through inner library loan. Countless names (In alphabetical order) and lots of info on the lottery land grants. I know how the famous brick walls are. Good luck Sandel [email protected] Seattle Surnames; Briskey,Brisky,brisque,demastus,sutton,meadows,hodnett,moore,mcintosh,leverett (States SC, GA, Chambers County,AL, washington State, TX and france)
