COOK posted by Johnny Cook on Thursday, December 9, 1999

Hello, my name is Johnny Cook. I have been trying to find some information on my gggg-grandfather, Robert R. or A. Cook. He is believed to have been born around 1795 or 96 in Franklin County, Georgia. Everybody doing research on this line of Cooks can't get beyond Robert. He had 2 wives. The first we don't know anything about. The second was Anna Holder George. It has been suggested that his first wife was a Landers, or Gray, or a Rooks. Children by his first wife were: Elijah, George Washington (my ggg-grandfather), Martha, James H., Amanda, and Annie Elizabeth. About the only information we have on Robert, other than the above, is that he was in Jackson County, Georgia in 1829 when George Washington Cook was born. He later shows up in Carroll County, Georgia where he married his second wife, Anna Holder George, on March 4th, 1846. In 1850 he and Anna are listed in the Carroll County census along with his children of his first wife. The area of Franklin County, where it is believed that Robert was born covered a larger area at the time of his birth than it does now, so it is possible that information about Robert may be in one of the surrounding counties, including Madison. Any help on information, or how I might obtain information, about Robert Cook will highly be appreciated. Thanks for reading this. Johnny Cook.

HOLBROOK, WILLIAMS posted by Harold Williams on Monday, December 20, 1999

Looking for information on William Pinckney WILLIAMS b. unknown, d. unknown, m. Jane "Jinsey" HOLBROOK 8/24/1815, Carnesville, Franklin Co, GA. She b. 6/16/1799, d. 3/14/1878, bur. WILLIAMS/MUNROE Cem., Clay Co, AL. 1850 census of Madison Co lists: Williams, William 56 yrs GA; Williams, Luzenia 16 yrs; and Williams, Walton 12 yrs. These names and dates are consistent with other information I have on the two children. They were the youngest of 9 children, and conceiveably the oldest seven had already left home by the 1850 census. Walton Williams (my g-grandfather) is buried in the same cemetery as Jinsey (my g-g- grandmother) above. There is no record of William ever arriving in Alabama. Does anyone have any information on his history or burial site? Also any information on the HOLBROOK lineage would be appreciated. Thanks to Gene Harrison of Fayetteville, GA who was the source of the 1850 census information. Harold Williams

COBB, WILLAFORD, WILLEFORD, WILLIFORD posted by Vicki Faciane on Tuesday, December 28, 1999

I'm researching the WILLEFORD/WILLAFORD/ WILLIFORD families of Georgia. Specifically, I'm looking for descendants of Benjamin C. WILLIFORD and Charity COBB, both b. bet. 1780-1790, prob. in NC. They were in Warren Co., GA, for awhile prior to moving on to Pulaski, Monroe, and finally Crawford Co., GA. They had 12 children, most of whose names are not yet known/verified. Known to be children: George Washington WILLIFORD, Mary WILLIFORD, Susan WILLIFORD, and Penelope WILLIFORD. Supspected: Thomas Hines WILLIFORD and Micajah WILLIFORD. I found records for many WILLIFORD marriages in Madison Co. and am seeking any researchers for these families.

This may prove to be stupid question. But, one I am unable to find a reliable answer to. So here goes. How did Madison County get its name? And how would one establish just who the oldest remaining families with descendents still residing in Madison County are?

BARNES, HILL posted by David Lineberger on Friday, January 7, 2000

I am searching for information on John H. Barnes, allegedly born in Madison County on or around 7 April 1842. He enlisted as a member of Co. A, 24th Georgia Infantry AKA the Banks County Independant Volunteers on 4 August 1861. He fought with the Army of Northern Virginia and surrendered at Appomattox, VA on 9 August 1865. He married A. (Anne?) Elizabeth Hill in Banks County on 10 June 1866 and I believe that they had at least 5 children, the youngest of which was my great-grandmother Arminda (Mendie) J. Barnes. John H. and Elizabeth are buried in the Mount Pleasant Methodist Church Cemetery on SR 51, just north of Homer in Banks County. I am almost positive that John H. and Elizabeth are Mendie's parents but this is based on family heresay, secondary sources, and inspired detective work. What I really need is that one piece of primary evidence to seal the deal. Can you help?
