50 WAYNE UPCHURCH Wed May 7 05:42:58 1997 Several of my lineage, UPCHURCH, moved from NC to GA in early 1800's, particularly Henry and Carroll Counties. Seeking info (names, birth/death dates, marriage dates & spouses, children, etc.) on UPCHURCH'S that migrated there.
49 Christy Jordan-Frank Tue May 6 19:11:34 1997 I'm interested in hearing from anyone with any information on any and all COLLINS' from the Butts/Henry/Spalding County areas.....My earliest known COLLINS ancestor from that area is Samuel COLLINS b. abt. 1784-1788 in either Delaware (per Butts Co. 1860 census) or "D.C" (Washington?) per the 1850 Butts Co. census.....Samuel married Jane UNKNOWN probably abt. 1807, and settled in Butts Co. Their oldest child (son Irbin) b. abt. 1809 in GA is my gggrandfather. There are still descendants in the Butts/Henry/Spalding area today. I first find record of the family in 1820's Henry Co. property deeds, and in the Butts Co. 1830 census. Where were they before then?? Where in GA was Irbin born?? Were my COLLINS' from Delaware or Washington, D.C. or elsewhere?? Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks, Christy Jordan-Frank

Trying to get a lead on his father's name and/or find someone in the area who might be searching the same name. Thanks Verne Jordan.

I am researching BANISTER R. BRAY who sold lot #226 in Henry County to his father-in-law, William Mitchell on 01/04/1837, recorded 03/26/1839 in Deed Book J on page 80. Where did he get this land? I cannot find him listed as a Grantee in the deed index. I am trying to determine who his first wife was, and was hoping this might be a clue, ie, was this land inherited or willed to him. I have quite a bit of information on this family who migrated from Virginia to Georgia and finally settled in Gordon Co.

 Am searching for a Miles Jefferson SMITH b. 1821 in Monroe County, GA., married 1844 to a Parmelia Frances HAND of Henry/Monroe County, GA. They lived in the Monroe County area during the 1850 Census, but were living in Henry County in 1860. If anyone has information on this family, please contact me; I will gladly share what information I have. Thanks [email protected]
41 Mary Mitchell Clarke Sun Apr 27 08:05:05 1997 Will exchange information on Shatteen Coker MITCHELL, b. 1802, Amelia Co., VA d. Spalding Co., GA 1866. His land was in Henry County until 1851 when it was included in the new county of Spalding. He moved to Henry County in 1838 when he bought land in the 3rd District. In 1842, he bought land in the 2nd Dist. and built a plantation house he named "Double Cabins" which is now a Bed and Breakfast near Griffin. Would be glad to hear of others researching my GGGF.
