Hi Friends!

The  February issue of the East Georgia Genealogical Society's quarterly,
"Georgia Settlers," will be mailed out next week.  The main features in this
issue are:

1.    Gwinnett Co. Inferior Court Minutes (1820-32), pp. 77-95
2.    Jackson Co. - Sandy Creek Church Minutes (1832-1906) - a continuation
3.    Lincoln Co. - Widows of Deceased Confederal Soldiers (1860-1865)
4.    Oconee Co. Research Resources
5.    Oglethorpe Co. - Index to Annual Returns Books (1798-1844) - part 1
6.    Walton Co. - 42nd Regiment Georgia Militia, Court of Inquiry
(1845-1853)
       part 1 of 2

The big news is that the two books, "Walton County Georgia Cemeteries
(East)" and  "Walton County Georgia Cemeteries (West)" are now
back from the printers! 
   
This massive work is a completely new compilation and all the known
cemeteries in Walton County as of late 2002 are included. State
Highway 11 was used as the East-West dividing line for division
of cemeteries in these two volumes.  This dividing line is a historically
significant route based on a road used by early settlers in Walton Co.

For more information on the new books, or to find out how to become a

Speaker is Jennifer Collins, chairman of the Black American History
Committee of the Gwinnett Historical Society.  She is also author of a
pictorial history of African Americans entitled "Black American
Series - Gwinnett County, Georgia."  Ms. Collins will bring to life in

total African Americans.

We hope you can join us!  A supply of the new "Walton County Georgia
Cemeteries" books will be on hand.
