Debra, I know about Greenville. But there are ways around them. I can go to the Ga State Archives or to the Washington Memorial Library in Macon for information. You can not get to much information off the Ga Archives website. Its not good at all. You can email me with all the information ( Dates and names) that you need. I will be glad to see what I can find out on your family. If you already have book and page numbers on deeds or wills, that will help. I am the registra for my DAR chapter. Looking forward to helping you.

Peni - Yes, I know Christine. She has done a lot of the research on the "William Thomas" Turner family, and we have shared information back and forth. I don't know if Christine has yet hooked up the computer her daughter was transferring on to her. "Lacy" is the name you would be looking for if you have one married to a Turner. The census you refer to does show the named to be "Lucy" but all other census entries has her as "Lacy" with the proper children in the household, until they were all married and had their own families. My father, who lived next door to Lacy (near Hodgesville) during the 1890's, knew her only as Lacy (his grandmother). But if you should find any different information, I would be very interested in knowing about it! One of the big problems is which of the Watford families does Lacy belong to. I have a theory, but have not been able to yet establish proof of the family connection. My father did not know, but he did seem to know certain Watfords, Mixons and Tindels in the area as being related to him (and therefore to Lacy). Good luck on your research! Cleatus M.

not sure , do you think there could be 2 Watford girls that married Turners the story doesn't connect with me , but will pass it to a Turner, Sheffield cousin who lives in Dothan, now Taylor, Al and see what she says, she is the historian. do you know her,?

We gave been out of town for a few days and I did not have access to the internet, but am just catching up. Thanks to Gail -- she remembered the details. Lacy Watford was my ggrandmother and was born in Darlington County, SC about 1825. My father knew her (his grandmother) very well. We have no real proof of my ggrandfather Turner's name, but we (including others in the family) have believed it to be either William or Thomas. My father, when I questioned him in 1969, did not know his first name. He took me to Big Creek Cemetery (near Hodgesville, south of Dothan, and indicated that that was the "burying grounds" for the Watfords, Mixons and Tindells. But he could not find their graves. I am currently working on the possibility that his name was actually John Turner, but this needs more research. Lacy's four children were born between 1850 and 1857. Obviously her husband either died or disappeared by the 1860 census. By 1870 she had married someone named Whaley and they were still living in the Big Creek community. By 1880, Whaley was gone and she was again living near a Watford relative in Jackson County, FL. with the three unmarried sons. Then the family moved back to just north of Hodgesville (near Travis Mixon, her relative), and Lacy and her sons, George and John, did acquire land by homesteading -- but by 1891 they had lost the land. We have been having reunions since 1992 for the George William Turner family, and just last month I attended the reunion for the William Thomas Turner family (in Dothan, AL) All the George William group have ben identified and the family tree is current. We are working on the William Thomas family. We have not been able to connect with Sarah nor John families. My older sister (she just died at age 93) remembers our grandmother telling her about George William making a trip in the late 1890's to visit relatives in Texas; there was some trouble, he got "beat up" and they sent him back home on a train. Does this connect in any way with your Texas Turners? It sounds as if we both have important information thatg should be combined --and I am anxious to connect with anyone out there who can contribute to this puzzle. Please let me hear from you.
