  1. My mother was raised in Hawkinsville. Her mother was from a family of 13 kids, and her father from a family of 7. She and her sisters had something like 44 first cousins. There were even cousins from one side who married cousins on the other side. (It’s okay, you just have to think it through.) God bless all of the Daniels, Lancasters, Buchans, Delamars, and all of the rest.

    my father’s family is from this region of ga. pulaski county was divided and dodge county was formed. My great-grandparents on the paternal was married in dodge county in 1850. A lot of north carolina and south carolina had a migration into georgia during the 1840′s. I found this out when looking at the census of both the carolina’s and georgia. My great-grandfather arrived there with 10 children from north carolina. He married my grandmother and had nearly that many more children.

      My relatives migrated from North Carolina about the same time ( not long after the area was opened for settlement). They had moved to mountain areas of NC from tidewater area of VA where they first settled after arriving in the “new world” around 1658. The marriage records of Pulaski, Bleckley and Dodge counties are filled with fascinating entries from the early 1800s onward.

      Yes, my paternal side of the family kind of migrated down to Georgia along about that time (1840s) from Franklin County North Carolina. Wonder what was going on up there at the time to cause them to make the move?
