Several family members are working on the Reddick family out of Burke
and Screven
Counties (formerly St. George Parish). These Reddick brothers are
Nicholas, Francis,
Jacob, and Peter. Jacob Reddick was married to Nancy Wiggins. We
would like more
information on Nancy Wiggins' family. Peter Reddick was married
to Margaret Clarke,
daughter of Col. John Clarke and Sarah Tobler Clarke of Beech Island,
SC. Sarah
Tobler Clarke is the niece of Rev. Johann J. Zubley and also the
niece of Ulrich Tobler.
Francis, Peter and Jacob Reddick were sued by a Dennis Glisson in
1789. Peter
Reddick sold land to Seaborn Jones in 1809 located in Screven County,
GA, and
Nicholas Reddick bought land from Francis Paris, which later, his
children also sold,
we think, to Seaborn Jones. We do know the land they lived on near
Brier Creek now
is part of Millhaven Plantation. When Jacob Reddick died, his widow,
Nancy Wiggins
Reddick married Turner Braswell. Jacob and Peter Reddick also bought
land from
John Michael Burkhalter in 1792. The Reddick brothers, either individually
or
together, were involved in courtcases with the following people:
William Christie,
John Adam Nesler, Abram Heath, Benjamin Warren, and Major Hurst.
We would
certainly be happy to share any information we have, but we are
certainly interested
in learning more about any of these families (i.e. where they lived,
why they were
involved in court cases, etc.). Thanks! Niles Reddick

Query: I wonder if anyone has info on the family headed by Ann E.
JACKSON in the 1850 census for Richmond County? I'm guessing that
she is
the Elizabeth JACKSON who married John W. W. JACKSON in Richmond

I am especially interested in what seems to be her 14 year old daughter,
Elizabeth C. JACKSON, listed in the 1850 census.
My gg grandmother, Elizabeth JACKSON, who was 44 in 1880 census,
b in
GA, married William A. GOAD and had at least 2 children born in
GA,
before moving to AL about by 1860.
She named her second daughter Elsie Clementine.....
Any ideas on whether I may or may not be on the right track would
be
appreciated.
