Sandy
thanx for the response
You are right it is possible for Samuel to be the son of Nathaniel Sr.
Sarah Williamson was the second wife of Nathaniel Sr. so it had to be
this Sara or a daughter named Sara to be asking for ltrs of Adm.
What is strange here is that nathaniel sr. died 1790 in Burke, why the delay
in administering his estate? that's 24 years? Possible however, could be
that some land laying idle needed to be sold and this was the only way
to clear the courts to allow Sara to sell it or some such reason.
Nathaniel Jr. died Montgomery Co 1838 so easily his mother could
have been living with or near him. He was a Judge, Justice or some
such public figure in Screven/Montgomery Co can't remember just what
I saw on that.
I truly do wish I could add something to solving your search but I don't
have anything that will help us solve this mystery. I do have some notes
that I have collected and will gladly share them if you think they might
help.
I have been to Atlanta [the state Archives] many times searching these
counties
and cannot find the straw that ties folks together. If you do please share
with me.
The best rundown I have seen is from a friend John Culbertson who sent me
some
quotes from a book entitled. I'll go look be right back.
The books quoted are:
Families of Burke Co by R. S. Davis
Our Family Circle by ?
My Mother's Family Tree by maybe Eunice Miller Bailey?
I did not find any of these books in the state archives I need to visit
Washington Library in Macon again and see if they have them.
You are welcome to have these notes and any other notes I have on
Nathaniel just ask for them and say you will share back anything they
help you determine later.
I am easy to get along with and I share willingly so ask.
