This Society was organized in 1976 in Carrollton, Georgia, for the
purpose of preserving local records and evaluating and sharing such
records with persons who have an interest in genealogy. Membership
is open to all persons who are interested in genealogy in Carroll
County and surrounding areas, or persons living anywhere who have
roots in Carroll County or an interest in the founding fathers and
history of the County. This Society does not assume responsibility
for errors in fact or opinion which may appear in articles furnished
by its members. We will gladly correct any errors brought to our
attention.

Dear Members: {
Time again for another issue of our Quarterly. I hope you are
having more success in locating your roots than I seem to be.
Continue to send us the excellent material to be included in the
Quarterly, including narrative histories.
Our Society was most fortunate to have Mr. Brent Holcomb of
Columbia, S. C., as our speaker for the luncheon at our April
meeting. He gave us much information to absorb on research in
both North and South Carolina. Mr. Holcomb is very interesting
to talk to and very knowledgeable on genealogy. We came away
inspired to "get with it" and find out more about our families.
We are adding many more books and pamphlets to the collection at
the Neva Lomason Library in Carrollton. If you are aware of any
material you feel would be helpful, please advise me or one of
the other members and we will try to secure it.
In a recent issue of the Quarterly I asked for suggestions of
materials that would be helpful to researchers and received
several replies. Thank you for your suggestions. At present work
is being done on the 1870 Census and we hope to see it to publi¬
cation soon. Marriage records are being researched and this, too,
will be along later.
I have been given requests from various ones who have written for
information or pictures, etc., and am trying to locate most of
this material.
Best wishes for your continued good searching.
Sincerely,
Marcia S. McGahee

A SPECIAL REQUEST
by Mrs. Mazy Ann Butler
1817 B W 35
N. Little Rock, Ark. 72118
I never knew my mother or father! In 1981 I did find a natural
brother and a sister to my mother. There are still half brothers and
sisters somewhere (half by blood line).
My mother was Vola Harper of Villa Rica, Ga. She was first married to
a Harper and had a son named Claud, who lives in Atlanta. She then
married a Doyal or Royal and had a girl named Ruth. Ruth was raised in
Piedmont, Alabama, and married a Morgan, a construction worker. Ruth
moved to Seattle, Wash., and so far my inquiries in that area have
resulted in nothing.
Vola then met a Robert L. Towler of Villa Rica and they supposedly
had three children together: .Myself (Annie Pearl), Harold Loyd, and
Clara Lee. Mr. Towler was married and had two children, a boy and a
girl. Supposedly his daughter Bessie married an Entrekin and lived in
Atlanta. Mr. Towler died in 193^• ' I have been told he was from Indian
heritage of the Cherokee nation, and perhaps his mother was a Fannie
Fountain of Rock Mills, Ala. In 1931»‘ Vola gave Annie Pearl and Clara
Lee to George Sams (a military man) and his family, and Harold Loyd to
a Bohlinger family of Virginia. I (Annie Pearl) and Harold were
reunited in 1981. Clara Lee died in 1964, age 33* I know Vola is dead
and also Mr. Towler but I don’t have much information on the Towler line.
Of course I have no pictures of my mother or father and only hope this
query will bring forth information and maybe pictures. I am looking for
information on the parents of Vola and Mr. Towler. Vola was probably
bom in 1896. I know very little of Mr. Towler except that he was
married to a McCoy, is buried in Villa Rica, and his occupation was with
the railroad and in produce. Vola died in 1975 and is buried in the
Marietta National Cemetery. Her occupation was nursing.
Children of Robert Los Towler and Mavola S. Harper:
1. Annie Pearl (name changed to Mary Ann in 1931), b 14 Apr 1928,
Atlanta; m 30 June 1945 to Charles E. Butler, Sr.
2. Harold Loyd Bohlinger, b 1929» Atlanta; m Elma Bryant. Children:
Harold Jr., Melissa, and DeLayne.
3. Clara Lee, b 2 June 1932, Atlanta; m Bob G. Blevins; died 1964;
buried Lost Creek, Sheridan, Ark.
I hope I can locate my heritage. I work as a nurse at the VA Hospital
here in North Little Rock and do my genealogy as a hobby, a hobby that
is close to my heart.
(Mrs. Butler sounds like such a lovely lady. Please! Can anyone help
her?)

The following sketches are taken from "Memoirs of Georgia" by Joel
Chandler Harris.
Z. T. ADAMS, farmer, Temple, Carroll Co., Ga., son of Absalom and
Elizabeth (Reid) Adams, was bom in Carroll county in 1845. His grand¬
parents, Adams, were Virginians, and moved thence to Tennessee, whence
they subsequently came to Carroll county, where they died. Mr. Adams'
father came from Tennessee to Georgia and settled in Carroll county in
1829, where he cleared a farm. He was a soldier in the Indian war of
I838. His great-grandfather on his mother's side, Reid, was a soldier
in the war of 1812, during which he was shot in the stomach, the ball
passing through the body. A silk handkerchief was drawn through the
orifice afterward and he recovered and lived many years. His maternal
grandparents, Reid, were early settlers in this part of the state.
Mr. Adams was reared on the farm and received a common school education.
Being too young to enter the Confederate service he enlisted, in I863,
in Company F (Capt. Long), Georgia regiment, state troops. Mr. Adams
was married in 1864 to Miss Rebecca C. Coleman, daughter of W. A. and
Sarah Ann (Barnes) Coleman, old settlers of this part of the state.
When he was married he had nothing—was very poor. He has always been
a plain farmer; has now a nice improved farm of nearly 200 acres with
a comfortable house on it, within the corporate limits of Temple. Mr. and
Mrs• Adams have had six children born to them: William M. born Nov. 14,
1865; Henry T., born Jan. 16, 1868, a teacher in Texas; David N. born
July 11, 1869; Gilbert E., born Oct. 30f 1872; Z. T., born Nov. 22, I876;
and Bessie, born Feb. 10, 1884. Himself and wife are devoted and exem¬
plary members of the Missionary Baptist church.
G. R. ADAMSON, merchant, Bowdon, Carroll Co., Ga., son of John W. and
Mary Ann (McDaniel) Adamson, was born in Henry county, Ga., in 1842.
His paternal grandparents were William C. and Elizabeth (Crawley)
Adamson. He was born in Wilkes county, Ga., and she was a native of
Morgan, where they were married. Mr• Adamson's father was born in
Morgan county in 1822, where he was reared and educated. About the
time he reached his majority he went to Henry county, settled in the
woods and cleared a farm. In 1852 he loaded his ox carts and moved to
Carroll county, and again settled in the woods and cleared another farm.
A few years after this he went over into Chambers county, Ala., settled
in the woods and cleared a third farm. But he liked Georgia too well
to be satisfied, so he returned to Carroll county, and for the fourth
time settled in the woods and cleared a farm—the subject of this
sketch helping him in all, particularly the last three. In i860 he
-53-
began the mercantile business in Bowdon, but the war coming on the
business collapsed, and everything was lost. In 1862 his father
enlisted in Capt. Este's company, Twenty-sixth Georgia .battalion; served
through the war—and was at C-olumbus about the time of the surrender,
but escaped being captured. After the war he went into business again
at Bowdon, and continued it until he died in 1888. In 1861 Mr. Adamson
enlisted in Company B (Capt. Charles A. McDaniel), Cobb's legion,
infantry. Capt. McDaniel was president of the college at Bowdon, and
his company was mostly composed of his pupils, of whom Mr. Adamson was
one. He was an active participant in many battles, among them—
Dam No. I, Yorktown, Malvern hill, and South mountain, where he was
severely wounded and captured, but was released. As a result of* this
wound he was disabled, but as soon as he recovered he returned to the
army, in Tennessee. Thence he went to Virginia and was at the battle
of the Wilderness. While his command was on duty on James river he was
released on account of his old wound and returned home. While at Bowdon
he was captured a second time, but it happened to be after the surrender.
The close of the war left him comparatively destitute. Thus father and
son, by their bravery and long continued faithful service, made a record
of which they rightly felt proud. After the war he engaged with his
father in business; but when he married, he went to another point, where
he remained until his father's death, in 1888, when he returned in 1889
to Bowdon, took charge of and continued his father's business, and is .
now a leading merchant there. Everything, immediate family connections,
natural and by marriage, war record, and splendid business capacity,
contributed to this result. Mr. Adamson was married in 1868 to Miss
Fannie M. Yarbrough—born in Floyd county, Ga., in 1851—daughter of
Nathan and Margaret (Lampkin) Yarbrough. Her father was born and reared
in Franklin county, Ga., and went to De Kalb county in 1830 and clerked
in a store in Decatur. In 1835 he went to Floyd county, and was one of
the pioneers, if not one of the founders, and wrote, the first charter of
the now flourishing city of Rome. Years afterward he migrated to Texas,
and is now living—85 years of age—in Comanche county. To Mr. and Mrs.
Adamson ten children have been born: Edith, John, Herbert, Ralph, Norma
(dead), Claris, Mattie, Ethel, Robert and Nathan. Mr. Adamson is a
master and royal arch Mason, and himself and wife are members of the
Methodist Protestant church.
MOSES J. BAXTER, farmer, Temple, Carroll Co., Ga., son of John and
Elizabeth (Stripling) Baxter, was born in Monroe county, Ga., in 1828.
His paternal grandparents were John and Nancy (Dowdy) Baxter. His
grandfather was born in England, and came to this country after the
revolutionary war. He settled first in Virginia, afterward moved to
North Carolina, and finally came all the way from North Carolina to
Georgia in an ox cart, and settled in the woods in Monroe county—among
its pioneers. He followed farming all his life. He was a soldier of
the war of 1812, and during his service had a remarkable experience with
a wound. The ball went entirely through his body, and a silk handker¬
chief was drawn through the orifice, yet he recovered and lived many
years in excellent health afterward. Mr. Baxter's father was born in
1807 and came to Georgia when a small boy with his father, who came to
Carroll county in 1828; the subject of this sketch was an infant at the
time, and the unconscious subject of a thrilling incident. The trip had
been made in ox-carts, and when they reached the Chattahoochee river a
negro nurse insisted on taking the baby in her arms. When the boat
reached the opposite bank, the steers became scared and backed, and the
negro jumped overboard with our subject in her arms. When she arose to
the surface his father caught and drew them out. His father was a
-54-
soldier in the Indian war of I836; and, also, was a member of the
Methodist church. His maternal grandparents, John and Mary Stripling,
were among the early settlers of Monroe county. Mr. Baxter was reared
on the farm in Carroll county, and the very limited education he received
was at the old time dirt floor log house, with its unsatisfactory
accompaniments. In 1862 he enlisted in Company F, Cobb's legion, and
went to the front. But he was soon taken sick and was sent to Richmond,
where he remained many months, and when he had apparently recovered he
returned to the army. It was not long before he was again prostrated,
and, this time, came home on a furlough—he was at home at the time of
the surrender. Like thousands of others, the war left him stripped of
everything; but like them, he went bravely to work, impaired in health
as he was, to build up. By dint of hard work and close management he
has a fine, large farm, well improved, with nice dwelling and substantial
out buildings, half a mile from Temple; and commands the respect of all
who know him. Mr. Baxter was married in 1852 to Miss Sarah J., daughter
of James and Elizabeth (Baskin) Stripling, early settlers, by whom he
has had eight children: William A., N. N., James D. , Robert A., John M.,
Geo. Ann Florence, Frances, and Martha. Mr. Baxter is a master Mason
and himself and wife are members of the Methodist church.
JAMES H. L. BENFORD. farmer, Victory, Carroll Co., Ga., son of John and
Martha (Anders) Benford, was born in Twiggs county,.Ga., in I837. His
paternal grandparents, George and Elizabeth Benford, were Virginians,
and he was a soldier in the patriot army during the revolutionary war.
His father was born in Virginia in 1818, came to Georgia when a young
man and settled first in Bibb county; he afterward went to Twiggs county
and settled in the woods and cleared a farm. He was a soldier in the
Indian war of I836, and was wounded in the arm. His maternal grand¬
parents, Robin and Elizabeth Anders, were natives of Maryland, but
migrated to Georgia, and were among the earliest settlers of Twiggs
county. Mr. Benford was reared on the farm in Twiggs county and remained
on it until he was eighteen years old, when he removed to Carroll county
and settled in the woods on the tract whereon he now lives. There was
not a stick amiss on the land, and he cleared the land for his farm by
himself. There were four families moved together in ox carts, and all
of them occupied an eighteen by eighteen log cabin together, cooking,
etc., until they could build. He went to school only one week, and was
never taught anything but the alphabet. In 1861 he enlisted in
Company B, Cleburne's regiment, known as the "Pattison Rangers.” He
participated in quite a number of battles—Gatling's farm, Petersburg,
Columbia, etc., but was most of the time on scouting duty, and often on
special courier service. For nearly a month, at one time, his command
was chased by Gen. Kilpatrick, fighting nearly every day. He was
captured once in Virginia, and when commanded to surrender his gun he
threw it down and broke it; and then put his foot on his saber and broke
that, too; he then told his captors to take him if they wanted to. As
they were taking him to their lines, after dark, dangerous as the
attempt seemed, he succeeded in eluding their vigilance and escaped.
For a long time he was a courier for Gen. Lee, whose pass he bore
permitting him to go where and when he pleased at his discretion. At
the time of the surrender he was scouting in the rear of the Union army.
He came out of the war with nothing but his land, and when his father
died had his family to care for, giving the children a fair education.
He owns now 1,500 acres of good land, including a well-improved farm,
and has the reputation among his neighbors of being one of the most
progressive and one of the best farmers in Carroll county. He certainly
ranks among the solidest and most substantial of the county's citizens.

In I865 Mr. Morris* was married to Miss Fannie Morris, born in
Meriwether county and daughter of William and Sarah (Ayers) Morris.
Fifteen children have blessed this union, of whom thirteen are living:
Henry, Price, Alice, Lity, Warren, Terrell, Eugenia, Perdue, Anna, Sula,
Edell, Artentious, and Pious. Mr. Benford is a master Mason, and himself
and wife are members of the Missionary Baptist church.
GEORGE A. BONNER. farmer, Carrollton, Carroll Co., Ga., son of Zadoc
and Lucy (Ridgeway) Bonner, was bom in Carroll county in 1844. His
great-grandfather was a soldier in the patriot army during the revolu¬
tionary war. His grandparents, Zadoc and (Johnson) Bonner, were natives
of Georgia, and his grandfather was born during the revolutionary war.
Mr. Bonner's father was bom in Clarke county, Ga., in 1804, and was
reared there on a farm and removed to Carroll county in 1829. He was a
man of great energy, progressive and aggressive, and possessed unusual
force of character. During the Indian war he raised a company, but the
war closed before he could be mustered in. Although the county was
always overwhelmingly democratic and he was a whig in politics, he was
repeatedly elected a justice of the inferior court. When he moved to
Carroll county he settled in the woods, lived to accumulate a very large
estate and to become one of the county's most influential and honored
citizens. His maternal grandparent, Drury Ridgeway, was an old settler
of Georgia, who subsequently went to Alabama. Mr. Bonner was reared on
the farm and received his early education in the common schools of the
county. He then entered Bowdon college, where he was when the civil war
began. In 1862 he enlisted in Company D, Capt. William|Tumiin, First
Georgia regiment, and served about eighteen months, during which time
he participated in many hard-fought battles, among them Richmond, Ky.,
Frankfort, Shelbyville, Camp Dick Robinson, Perryville, Crab Orchard,
Murfreesboro, Stone Hill, Winchester, Tullahoma, Munfordville, etc.
Returning home he was engaged in gathering saltpeter and lead for the
Confederate government until the surrender, and then he returned to the
old farm where he now lives. His last service was the bearing of a
dispatch from Jacksonville, Ala., to La Grange, Ga. When he reached
his destination he found La Grange in the hands of the Union forces, but
he was sharp enough to escape capture. He has been a jury commissioner
for the last five years. Mr. Bonner was married in 1872 to Miss
Mattie E., daughter of Green and Marthe (Freeze) McGuire, of Irish
descent, but among the early settlers. To Mr. and Mrs. Bonner eight
children have been born: Zadoc M. , Ola G., George L.., Bessie B.,
Flora I., Lona Me., Georgia and Ruth N. Mrs. Bonner, who was a devoted
member of the Methodist church, died in 1893* Mr. Bonner has been a
master Mason since he has become of "full age" and is one of Carroll's
public spirited and progressive citizens. His family for generations
have been among the most prominent and respected, but having been
members of the minority party before the war seldom held office. This
family is related by blood to that so prominent in New York.
S. J. BROWN, ordinary of Carroll county, Carrollton, Ga., son of Samuel
and Ruth T. (Brooks) Brown, was born in Newton county, Ga., in 1842.
His grandfather, Burrell Brown, came to Georgia late in the last century
and settled in the woods. Mr. Brown’s father was bom in Burke county,
Ga., in 1800. After receiving his education he taught school a number
of years himself, finally settling on some lands in the woods in Newton
county, living alone and working hard to open a farm. In I836 he
married his wife, a daughter of Terrell Brooks, and reared a family of
* This should be Mr. Benford.
-56-
nine children. In 1854 he removed to Carroll county, where the future
ordinary took his lessons in and enjoyed the beauties and facilities of
pioneer life. Judge Brown was reared on the farm, and attended the commor
county schools. In 1861 he enlisted in Company B, Capt. Charles A.
McDaniel, Cobb's legion, Gen. T. D. R. Cobb, and participated in many
important battles; Dam No. I on the Peninsula, in April, 1862; the retreat
toward Richmond; in the seven days' fight, Fredericksburg, Dec. 13, 1862;
Chancellorsville, May 1, 1863, when he was wounded in making a charge
on the enemy's breastworks, and returned home in June. Although disabled
by the loss of the use of his arm, he determined to return to the army
and to his company, and as he could do nothing else he carried water
and waited on the sick and wounded, exhibiting a patriotic, self-sacri¬
ficing disposition very rare. After his return he participated in the
battles of the Wilderness, Spottsylvania, Hanover Junction, Cold Harbor,
Petersburg and several other battles, remaining in the field until July,
1864, when he was retired on account of disabilities. After the war he
attended Bowdon college, remaining from I867 until 1871, and then he
taught school until 1875* In I876 he was elected county school
commissioner, and held the office eight years. From 1881 to 1884 he
taught school again. In 1885 he was elected ordinary of the county, and
has held the office continuously since. Judge Brown was married Jan. 10,
1871, to Miss Charlotte C., born in Lee county, Ala., a daughter of
W. T. and Ann (Stringer) Colquitt, by whom he has had eight children:
Ruth, Belle, Mary Lee, Helen, George C., Samuel.D., Mattie.and Lamar.
Judge Brown is a Primitive, and his wife a Missionary Baptist. He has
made an upright, faithful officer, is esteemed by everybody, and will
probably hold the office as long as he wants it.
W. F. BROWN, lawyer, Carrollton, Carroll Co., Ga., son of James C. and
Emily M. (Knight) Brown, was born in Carroll county in 1850. His grand¬
father, John Brown, was bom in South Carolina, whence he came to Georgia
in ox-carts and settled in the woods on land now included in De Kalb
county. They lived in tents until they cut the logs to build their
cabin, and then cleared the land for cropping. In 1832, ten years after
De Kalb county was laid off, he removed to Carroll county., organized a.
year or two before, and again settled in the woods, practically repeating
his experience in making the home he had left. Mr. Brown's father was
bom in what is now De Kalb county in 1815, and accompanied the.family
to its new home. His mother's parents, John C. and Emily (Hopkins)
Knight, were among Carroll's early settlers. Mr. Brown.was reared in
Carroll county and received a good common school education. When
nineteen years of age he began teaching school and continued it seven
years, and also began reading law. In I876 he entered the literary
department of the University of Georgia, and was graduated in I878. He
was admitted to the bar, and entered upon the practice of law in 1880,
and has been eminently successful. He is recognized as being as well
read in law as the majority of the profession practicing in his circuit,
as one of its leading lawyers, and gains his share of the cases intrusted
to his management. He has a good and growing clientage. No citizen
stands higher or better in the estimation of the people than Mr. Brown.
In 1884 he was elected to represent Carroll county in the general
assembly and serve the term. Mr. Brown was married in 1873 to Miss
Emily, daughter of Archey and Malinda (George) Hagan. The father was
one of the early settlers in Coweta county—the mother was born in
Jackson county, Ga. Of the eight children born to Mr. and Mrs. Brown
these seven are living: Earl I., appointed to a cadetship at the West
Point Military academy, after passing a crucial competitive examination;
Ralph S., Emily, Paul F., Willie G., Harry D., and Eveline. Mr. Brown
-57-
is a member of the I. 0. 0. P.f and in masonry a royal and select
master. Himself and wife are working members of the Methodist church—
he being superintendent of the Sunday school. He is also one of the
trustees of the Hucheson Collegiate institute. He is now judge of
Carroll City court under appointment of Ex-Gov. Northen. Altogether
Mr. Brown is a thoroughgoing, progressive and most worthy citizen.

CORRECTION
The article on the Walker and Culpepper families which appeared in the
Spring Quarterly, written by Mrs. Gertrude Walker Stone,, needs the
following corrections. On Page 4, under the children of Joel and
Elizabeth Whittaker Culpepper, #7 should read "Lucinda b ca I836; d
11 Aug I856; she never married." Also, on the same page under "Deaths"
the third entry should be "Louise" instead of "Lavire." Mrs. Stone’s
address should also be changed to 11 Casey St., Newnan, GA 30263.
Thanks, Mrs. Stone, for pointing out these corrections to us.
QUERIES
CANADY, KENNEDY, McCLUNG
Seeking information concerning James KENNEDY born ca 1814 in Ga. who
married 1835 (Campbell Co., Ga.) Hannah McCLUNG, born 1814 in Ga.
Children of the‘union were: Martha J., Jno. R., Demarius, Reuben L.,
Nancy N., and Elizabeth C. The family resided in District 2 of Carroll
Co., Ga., from 1841 to 1852 approx., after which time James and hischildren moved to Pontotoc Co., Miss., where he remarried in 1855*
Would like to establish whether John KENNEDY (CANADY) of Campbell Co.
or William KENNEDY of Carroll Co. were of any family relation. Would
like also to get confirmation of Hannah's death 1850-52.
.. Mrs. Karel J. Jahns, 9803 Van Buren Road, Lynden, WA 98264.
MORRISON, PEPPER
I will pay $50 for documented proof of the parents of Andrew Jackson
MORRISON who married Margaret PEPPER in Carroll Co., GA in 1848. Also
the same amount for Margaret PEPPER'S parents. I have been told that
William MORRISON, who lived in Randolph Co., Ala., in 1850 was the
father of Andrew Jackson. Can anyone help me? Will exchange informa¬
tion and family sheets. Andrew Jackson MORRISON and family moved into
St. Clair Co., Ala., and his brother James and wife Rutha moved also.
In the 1880 Census, Andrew Jackson stated his parents were from Virginia.
This doesn't match the Randolph Co. Census for William MORRISON which
says his birthplace is North Carolina.
.. Mrs. Johnnie Morrison Wright, 15 Brookwood Ct., Ormond Beach, FL 32074
JONES, McRIGHT/McWRIGHT, WOOD
Was Martha WOOD, b ca l846-7» wife of John McWRIGHT/McRIGHT, the
daughter of James P. WOOD and wife, Rebecca JONES? She is the right
age. Martha A. WOOD, dau of James P. and Rebecca JONES WOOD, was born
March 1846 and is listed in Hall Co., Ga. census records in 1850 and
I860; not found in their household after that. Hall Co. marriage
records show John McRIGHT and Martha WOOD m 2 Mar 1864, and they are
shown in the Hall Co. census in 1870 and 1880. 1880 shows John McWRIGHT
with his wife Martha, dau Rosanna, son George S. and mother Caroline,
age 50, and servant Jane. 1900 Gwinnett Co., Ga. census lists John
McWRIGHT with wife Lucinda and mother Caroline. Martha evidently died
I880-7. James and Rebecca WOOD and family, Liddie, Isaac Freeman,
Littleton, Robert LaFayette, Willis B., Mary C. (Mollie), and Thomas
were in Haralson Co., Ga. by 1870. Will share information and pay
postage and copying.

A COMPLIMENT TOO GOOD TO PASS UP
"Since I've been involved in research, I've received more response from
readers of the Carroll County Quarterly and the Family Puzzlers than any
other publications. Your Quarterly is superb and I recommend it to many
Mrs. Gertrude Walker Stone, 11 Casey St., Newnan, GA 30263.
I am a qualified researcher in the Southern United States. I am profi¬
cient in the States of GA ALA NC SC, and have worked with resources of
other Southern States. I am also proficient in researching the British
Isles. I charge $10 an hour and would require at least eight hours'
prepayment ($80) in order to start. I have access to sources in all the
above mentioned areas through use of the LDS (Mormon) Genealogical
Society and have knowledge of its use. My ancestors pioneered Carroll
County. Doing their research has helped me to familiarize myself with
this area. I believe my knowledge of the area and the use of the
Library in Salt Lake City qualify me to assist those who are unable to
travel to other parts of the South in search of their ancestors. Please
send prepayment and all information you have on the lines you need
searched.
.. Mr. John W. Reese Jr., 174 Canyon Rd. #1, Salt Lake City, Utah 84103*
