1. I live 40 miles from Andersonville Civil War Prison in Macon County Georgia and have had a very sucessful several months doing Volunteer lookups on the onsite database as well as on a CD that I purchased so I can do this at home.
My lookups are at no charge for anyone who ask. To speed things up their records are also online at..... http://www.corinthian.net/mccc/plookup.htm Just enter the name you are looking for and search. If you have records showing your ancester was there, and he's not listed, I can check further as some mispellings happened during record keeping and I can check by alphabet on my CD.

1. History of Wakeman Township compiled by Dr. F. E. Weeks (ca. 1938) Mine is a retyped copy of the original manuscript with a revised index . Both were done by long time area historian, Myron A. Allgood in 1988. He knew Dr. Weeks and obtained the manuscript from him. At the end is the following note: "According to tradition, the History of Wakeman Township was written "after 1917", and that it is the date which appears on a few other typed copies of the work. The original History gave no date of publication, but dates within the book go to 1938. 1938, then, seems to be the most likely date of publication. This work has detailed, though not always completely accurate, mention of individuals and families who lived in the area, mainly in the 1800s. Myron's index of people's names is exhaustive and includes first as well as surnames. His retyping of this work did not necessarily produce pagination that is the same as other versions. This work also includes four section maps showing approximate locations of the early settlers in the township.


2. Pioneer History of Clarksfield, by Dr. F. E. Weeks 1908 Published by the Author, Clarksfield, Ohio 1987 typed copy with revised index by Myron A. Allgood. This work and its index is similar in scope to the History of Wakeman Township. There are no maps, but there are some low quality photocopies of pages with photos and a page with "facsimile signatures of early pioneers."

Publishers, Norwalk, Ohio 295 pgs This volume contains photos of a number of businesses, residences, churches, streets of towns etc, along with a small number of portraits and short bios to go with the portraits.
