Martha J. Weaver married Israel B. Pickens in Walton County Georgia on March

Surnames: Whitehead, Adams

Am at a brick wall on great grandparents, Joseph Benjamin Whitehead and Ola
Adams. Have been searching in Dodge County for about a year and discovered
some notes I jotted down 30 years ago that states they were from Winder,
Ga. I live near Canada and am doing all my research on the internet. Joseph
and Ola were married about 1902-3, I have a copy of their wedding photo,
and they look to be in their early 20's, so I am guessing their births in
the late 1870-early 1880's. I believe Joseph was a Junior, and it is either
him or his father that the Joseph B. Whitehead Boy's Club in the Lakewood
section of Atlanta is named in honor of. There seems to be family lore that
one of them has a formal portrait in Crawford Long Hospital. Has anyone
access to the early Walton County marriage records, or census reports for
1880 that might list them in their family homes? I would be most grateful
for any assistance. One last thing, in the mid 1970's I was contacted by
a woman who was doing! a genealogical report for her family and mine was
an extension, or "branch" leading off a common ancestor. She wanted
to publish the report and was inquiring the interest in the family to purchase
copies, as she had to commit to a set number to have it printed and bound.
I never heard anymore from her, but would me most interested if the following
information would ring a bell in anyone's memory. She was researching my
Whitehead/Adams line, and I got the impression she was of the Adams side.
I do remember her saying we had an ancestor, Hartwell Jackson, that the
family descended from. She was a lovely lady, as most genealogists are,
and quite willing to share her findings. If anyone has family descending
from Hartwell Jackson, I am sure the Adams family will be in it also, as
she said the family was quite old in the region.

Surnames: White and Wilkerson
Nekita Jacobs is searching for information on the White surname, specifically, Nola White, her great grandmother, born in 1902. Nola's mother was Lucy White born 1876 her grandfather Edward White born 1868 in Walton County. The White family is in some way related to the Wilkerson family, perhaps thru a LouVada or LuVada White Wilkerson born Jan 8, 1898 and Sylvania "Fletcher" Wilkerson, born July 27, 1897 from Elberton, Elbert County, this family moved to Walton County at some point. Nekita would like to know the relationship between Lucy and LouVada. Please contact her at email address: [email protected]
