I am looking for any info on Ruth RALEY, who was a fortunate draw in the
1827 land lottery. She is listed as the widow of a rev. soldier. She was
living in Downs district. Also in 1830 there is a Rutha RALEY listed. I
am assuming this is the same person. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. I have reached a brick wall!!!! Thanks.

I am researching the family of Moses Smith, b. 1815 and his wife Jane
Adams, b 1821.
I know Moses Smith's mother was named Eady and that they (Moses, Jane
and his mother) are buried on the family homestead. According to
records the cemetary is located on Old Warrenton Road about 1 mile from
Thomson, near the railroad. I have no definite info on his father but
he might be William Owen Smith who died in the 1830-40's, burial site
unknown.
I was unable to locate the cemetary during a visit there. Any help would
be appreciated.
I also have been unable to identify Jane Adams parents. The 1840 census
shows a Rowell Adams living near Eady smith and her son aged correctly
to be Moses. There is a female listed with Rowell that could be the
correct age group to be Jane.
Moses and Jane had numerous children including my great grandmother,
Cassandra (Kate)Smith whjo married James Davis Waddell. They lived in
Thomson where he was owner of several merchandising establishments in
the 1870-80's.
I hope this may be enough info for someone to help me with Moses' and
Jane's parents.

I am trying to rebuild the genealogical work that my grandfather
completed. I am looking for the gravesite of George Harris. His wife was
Catherine Harriss Harris, and yes that is all spelled correctly. I
believe that he moved down here from VA around 1783.
The grave was on the old homesite in Barnett. I believe that it is now a
dead town. In 1965 my grandfather visited the homesite and met Mrs. J. F.
Quinn(Helen Harris before marriage). One of the sons Robert Harris Quinn
was also apparently very helpful according to grandfather's notes.
I would really appreciate any help that I could get locating the gravesite
and/or the people mentioned above.

Trying to sort the early Allen families of Warren County,
Georgia. Does anyone have information for Samuel Allen, Sr. or Jr?. They
were in Warren County by 1795. One or the other married Elizabeth Walden,
daughter of Samuel Walden, Sr. Sherrod Allen seems to be associated with
Samuel Allen as well as Shadrick Allen who is found in Pulaski County,
Georgia by 1827 with Samuel Walden's other daughter, Tabitha Walden
Yearty.
From research in Dan Crumpton's two genealogy books, there are many Allen
families associated with Warren County. Has anyone put these Allen's in

Looking up information on the Brinkley family. John C.
Brinkley married Mary Beall on January 27, 1826. She was the
granddaughter of Mannam Beall(About 1730-1823) and Frances Lewis (Beall)
and the daughter of Samuel Beall(1769-?) and Susannah Boothe
(Beall)(Before 1785-?). John C. and Mary had at least six children born
in Warren County from 1826 to 1838, based on birth dates of three. I had
thought that John C. might have been a brother of Captain Edwin A.
Brinkley but have found out that, at best is a second cousin through
marriage with the Bealls and maybe through the Brinkley's. Any help as to
the families would be greatly appreciated. There is a Baker-Brinkley
Cemetery near Beall Springs. What are the directions to it from
Warrenton?
