I am looking for any information about David INGRAM. His will was filed in Wilkinson County (dated 1 Feb 1828). He had sons James, Anderson, Hugh, David, William, Richmond, and Washington, and a daughter named Margaret, who married Joseph Davidson, Jr. Several of the sons moved to Navarro County, Texas, taking several family slaves with them. I also have information on the SEARS family--Timothy and Jane WHITE SEARS lived in Wilkinson County by 1814--if anyone wants to know something about them or their descendants, many of whom stayed in Wilkinson Co. for a long time.

Seeking information on the ancestors of my 2nd great grandmother; Louiza McNAIR. Her family came from Wilkinson County, GA. In the 1850 census for Barbour Co., AL she is listed, living with her mother Sarah LEE McNAIR. Sarah was born in 1805 in GA and came with her brother, Lovard LEE, from Wilkinson to Barbour, after her husband died in 1840. Her husband's name was A.M. (Gilbert ??) McNAIR, son of Gilbert McNAIR, who also had Anna, Daniel, and Elizabeth. A.M. grandfather was John McNAIR (from Scotland), who's wife's name was Jane McMURCHY. John & Jane also had Daniel and John. I think that they came from Richmond, Columbia, and Washington Co., GA. A.M. and Sarah also had Godfrey, Turquill, John, Amanda, Suzanne, and Winnifred McNAIR. Any help will be most helpful. Thank you in advance...

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. The Ellis Harvill mentioned in your listing of early Wilkinson Co. settlers is believed to be a grandson of Jospeh Harvill who died c1803 in Warren County. Joseph's mother Margaret Harvill Holliday (Ambrose Holliday her 2nd husband) wrote her will mentioning the children of her son Joseph deceased. In the 1807 land lottery, the "orphans of Joseph Harvill" of Warren Co. Devereaux's district won Wilkinson Co. Lot 93 District 13 ... Then on the 1820 lottery, "Joseph Harrell's orphans" of Wilkinson Co. Brooks district won Early Co. Lot 113, district 9. Are there Wilkinson Co. guardianship or orphan records in existence on film or hard copy that might identify these orphans? Would appreciate any ideas or info you might be able to offer on where to look, etc., to identify these orphans of Joseph. In addition to the young children, Joseph also left older children, including Ellis's father, Stephen.
