Is it possible that it was named after the ASH family? My husband's ASH family lived in Collin Co. from ca 1886 until ca 1898. I have found land deeds and marriage records for the family but no record of the death of Hamilton [G.H.]Ash. Hamilton Ash died in Collin Co. ca 1891 and his widow purchased land on Sister's Grove Creek. Other family members in Collin Co. were Joel Cates and Elizabeth Finley. Legal documents were signed at Blue Ridge, Valdasta, & Melissa. Is there any way to find a grave or death record for G. H. ASH?
