"This is a collection of 283 genealogies which I have compiled over a period of twenty years as a professional genealogist. ... While I have dealt with some of Oglethorpe's settlers, the vast majority of the genealogies included in this collection deal with Georgians who descend from settlers from other states."--Note to the Reader.
Robert Boyd (ca. 1705-1751) was of Scottish descent. He immigrated from Ulster Province, Ireland and settled in Cumberland (later Franklin County), Pennsylvania about 1737. Descendants and relatives eventually scattered throughout the United States.
Brothers, Stephen, Charles and George Heard, who were born in Ireland in about 1689 to 1692, came to America in about 1720. They settled in Sadsbury, Pennsylvania. Descendants and relatives lived mainly in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Georgia and Texas.
Alexander, James, Moses, David and John Trimble, brothers, immigrated from Ireland to the Delaware-Pennsylvania area, moving to Augusta County, Virginia about 1740/1744. Descendants lived in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas and elsewhere.
This work contains abstracts of the intestate records of the fifty-seven Georgia counties formed before the 1832 Land Lottery, plus those for Fulton (1853), White (1857), Dawson (1857), and Webster (1853) counties. Besides the name of the deceased and the dates of the various court papers, information in the abstracts includes the names of the administrators, sureties and guardians (often relatives of the deceased), names of the surviving spouse and children, the names of orphan children and heirs, and, where a will is recorded, the names of the legatees!
Few places in the United States feel the impact of courthouse disasters like the state of Georgia. Over its history, 75 of the state's counties have suffered 109 events resulting in the loss or severe damage of their courthouse or court offices. This book documents those destructive events, including the date, time, circumstance, and impact on records. Each county narrative is supported by historical accounts from witnesses, newspapers, and legal documents. Maps show the geographic extent of major courthouse fires. Record losses are described in general terms, helping researchers understand which events are most likely to affect their work.
