This succession, however, as indicated above, was disputed by
the sons of Maelbrigdi, and they succeeded in settling the title
for the time being by killing their uncle. After their own
deaths, Macbeth was the next in succession, notwithstanding
Gilcomgain had left an infant son (Lulach)."
the mormaors of Moray were the virtual rulers of the greater
part of Scotland lying north of the Grampians.

Drawer 178, Box 12, p. 81-82.)
Supposedly, George Rucker, father of Simeon Bluford Rucker, is
buried in Old Mud Creek Cemetery, near Clarkesville, Habersham
Co., GA. On Oct. 31, 1998, Suzanne and Darby Coker visited this
cemetery on Mud Creek Road and found no evidence of his grave.
However, it is obvious that there are very many unmarked graves
there and graves that have stones that have simply disappeared
overt time. George Rucker's is, no doubt, one of these.

copied from the Ivie Family Records:
