Still hoping to find info on my Wilson/Willson line. Most likely I'll never be able to find my Wilsons who were in SC in late 1700's to mid 1800's but I have to keep trying. Instead of moving from an unknown SC location to Walker Co GA by 1843, could they have first settled in a nearby GA county and then moved to Walker Co GA for the 1850 West Amunchee, GA census?   William Wilson was born ca 1800 in SC; married a Sarah unknown, born ca 1800-1810 in SC. Probably married in SC. The first 4 or 5 of his children were born there so I'm guessing they moved to GA between 1841 & 1843. He must have had brothers, but who were they and where did they reside? Did William follow family/friends to GA from SC? Have no earthly idea what Sarah's maiden name could have been or where she was from.   NAMES OF WILLIAM'S CHILDREN: Benjamin W. E. Wilson (ca 1829 SC);  Mary M. (ca 1837 SC);  Abbey L. (ca 1838 SC);  Martha A. (ca1839 SC);  James (ca 1841 SC);  Susy/Suzy C. (ca 1843 GA);  Jerry M (ca 1845 GA) ;  Minerva/Manerva J. (ca 1847 GA);  Sarah E. (ca 1849 GA); and Abraham/Abram (ca 1851-1852 GA).   Sarah died between 1851 and 186, either in GA or AL. William and those still left at home were in DeKalb Co AL by 1860 and I believe that he was living in the home of his daughter, Minerva/Manerva Wilson Windrix/Wendrick for the 1870 Jackson Co AL census.   Never giving up hope, Paula
