Wilkes County, Georgia, created in the year 1777, is the parent of Elbert, Oglethorpe, and Lincoln counties and parts of the counties of Greene, Hart, Madison, Taliaferro, and Warren. It comprised one-third of the population of the state in 1790. The records in this excellent little book are supplementary to Mrs. Grace G. Davidson's "Early Records of Georgia: Wilkes County" (1932, 1933) and are designed to assist the researcher in making a detailed survey of the oldest records in the Ordinary's office, once known as the Inferior Court office. The records--principally wills and settlements of estates, but also deeds of gift, inheritances, and marriage bonds--have more than ordinary genealogical significance, as they name not only principals but also beneficiaries (showing relationships), as well as witnesses and executors. The material is mostly of the period dating from the late 18th to the early 19th centuries and identifies nearly 5,000 early Georgians.

The Henderson Family ancestry begins in SCOTLAND. The family immigrated to USA, settling in Virginia.Some of the family members moved to N.Carolina, briefly in S.Carolina, traveled on to the State of Georgia, Colquitt, Lowndes, Brooks, Thomas Co.areas. Some branches of the Henderson family left Georgia migrated further south into the State of Florida. They settled in Madison, & Taylor County, Florida; and the family has a rich history in Madison County. Later; one of the branches left Madison and Taylor Co. with the Theophilus Hill family. The caravan stopped for a short time in Ocala; where some family descendants remained. Photos are available through the Hill family of those Henderson Family members. Both the Hill and Henderson families eventually settled down in Polk Co.-Hillsborough Co. Florida; in areas as Lakeland, Medulla, Ft. Meade, Bowling Green. Bowling Green, Florida is where Theophilus Hill and his wife; Lydia Henderson are buried. Henderson descendants will treasure this book.
Pioneers and patriots, the Henderson family left behind a legacy of historical treasures in word and deed, allowing an unprecedented look into the past. Their Victorian-era plantation home, constructed in the 1800s and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is a living monument to those who walked its halls in an unbroken chain of five generations. Family patriarch Alexander Henderson arrived in Virginia in the 1700s, earning the title of Father of the American Chain Store, counting founding fathers George Washington and George Mason among his friends. He sent three of his sons to what was then the wilds of the Mid-Ohio Valley. The Hendersons took part in what may be the only duel recorded north of the Ohio River and played a role in thwarting the treasonous exploits of Aaron Burr. Some family members also served on both sides during the Civil War, surviving turmoil, treachery, and tragedy.
