Hi - This is in response to the enquiry by Victor Crawford, Jr. on John T. Wooten. I have had the marriage & census data on John T. Wooten for several years but I have no definite proof of his parents. I think he is most likely the son of John M. Wooten, b ca 1755, NC, d. ca 1820, Oglethorpe Co., GA and Betsy Anderson, d. ca 1860, GA. They were married 30 Aug 1796 in Oglethorpe Co., GA. John M. Wooten was in the 1800 census of Oglethorpe Co., GA with his brother Thomas Wooten. They had at least one son, Henry A. Wooten, b. 1804, d. before 1870 in Dahlonega, Lumpkin Co., GA. My line from Henry is James Madison Wooten, b. 1836 GA, d. 1865 (POW) John Anderson Wooten, b. 1859. d. 1928, GA Augustus Anderson Wooten. b. 1882, GA d. 1969, Ga Bonnie L. Wooten, b. 1911, GA d. 1993, GA Please note the name Augustus - I have not run across this name for any other Wootens until your message that said John T. Wooten may have had a son Augustus. Please email the data you have on John T. Wooten and his children, especially dates & places of birth. We may have a connection in that John T. and Henry A. Wooten may have been brothers. Thanks, Forrest Hale
