Additional Comments:
Jacob Alonzo Redwine married Sarah Kleckley Derrick from Hampton, GA, daughter 
of Andrew and Catherine Kleckley Derrick.  I am descended thru this Derrick 
line.  Sarah is my great aunt.  There is a Redwine Rd., off Fairburn Rd., in 
Ben Hill, GA  named for the Redwine Family that lived in the Ben Hill area.  
There is a Redwine Lake still there, although it is now cut off from traffic as 
it had become a bad area for disposing of garbage and other things.  Redwine 
Rd. is located close to Mt. Gilead Church on Fairburn Rd.
