Local histories and genealogical records are fascinating and are a valuable tool for anyone tracing their roots. The records compiled in this book are important to those researching their African-American roots, those with ancestors who moved from Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia; from the countries of England, Ireland, Germany, Scotland, the Caribbean, as well as other counties in Georgia. Keep in mind, if your ancestor fought in the Revolutionary War, he may have moved to Georgia in order to participate in the many land grants and lotteries. Records included in this book are marriage records, burials, deeds, wills, and land grants, and cover the years 1752-1860.Remember to look at different surname spellings: for example, Lee and Leigh, Wilson and Willson, Baillie and Bailey. Good luck in your searching!
