BRAND  NEW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EARLY RECORDS of GEORGIA volumes 1 and 2  WILKES County "In this combined two volume book are abstracted some of the oldest and richest genealogical records of Wilkes County extant, spanning the period from 1777 to the 1830s. Included among these crucial records are Minutes of the First Court, 1779; First Marriage Book, 1792-1834; Deed Books AA through GG (perhaps the oldest on record for Wilkes County); a legion of will abstracts and indexes to wills; minutes of the Inferior Court; land lottery records; and more. In all, the two volumes identify more than 20,000 early inhabitants of Wilkes County. Two sets of transcriptions require special mention: (1) Original Papers, 1777-1830, constituting nearly a third of Volume I, represent a collection of previously uncatalogued manuscripts rescued from the county courthouse by Sarah Quinn Smith and here transcribed and arranged by Mrs. Davidson in alphabetical order according to the Wilkes County subject of each paper; and (2) the Land Court Journal to Ceded Lands, 1773-1775, which records the names of several hundred North and South Carolinians and Virginians who came to Georgia during these formative years."  by Grace Gilliam Davidson, hardcover, 421 INDEXED pages, reprint 1992, Southern Historical Press, Greenville, South Carolina.     VOLUME ONE Land Court Journal to Ceded Lands 1773-1775 (names 100's of NC, SC, + Va's who came to Ga 1773-75) Original Papers, 1777-1830 (a collection of previously uncatalogued manuscripts rescued from the county courthouse by Sarah Quinn Smith and here transcribed and arranged by Mrs. Davidson in alphabetical order according to the Wilkes County subject of each paper) Minutes of the first Court - 1779 Mixed Records and wills 1770-1819, 1819-1836Inventories & Appraisements 1784-1812Minutes of Inferior Court; Returns of Administrations & Guardians Book 1 1809-1816Remnant of Oldest Deed Book 1784-1785Deedbooks 1785-1790 (AA through GG)Land Court Records 1786-1792Land Lotteries 1805, 1807, 1820, 1821, 1827, 1832 (WOW) Paschal Family Bible RecordsIndex for this volumeVOLUME TWO Minutes of First Court, tax digest 1785Deed Books GG & HHWill Books 1819-1836Index to Will Book II 1837-1877Returns of Estates; Returns of Administrators & GuardiansOriginal Marriage Bonds 1792-1816First Marriage Book 1792-1834Index for 2nd Volume                                                                                                                                                           A-E Abbott * Abernathey * Acree * Adams * Akin * Alexander * Allen * Allison * Anderson M * Andrews * Anglin * Anthony M * Appling * Armor * Armstrong * Arnett * Arnold * Ashley * Ashmore * Atkins * Aycock * Baber * Bagby * Bailey M * Baird * Baker * Baldwin * Ball * Ballard * Banks * Bankston * Barfield * Barksdale * Barnes * Barnett M * Barrett M * Barron * Bates * Baxter * Bays * Beal/l * Beamon * Beard * Beasley * Bedell * Bell * Bennett * Benson * Bentley * Berry * Bibb/s * Billingslea/Billingley * Binns * Bird * Bishop * Black * Blackburn * Blake * Blakey * Boatright * Bolton * Bonner * Booker M * Bond * Boon * Boram * Boren * Boswell * Bostwick * Vowen * Bradford * Bradley * Bramblett * Branham * Brantley * Bray * Brazil * Brewer * Bridges * Briggs * Brook/s M * Brown M * Bruce * Brookner * Bryant * Buchannan * Bullard * Bullock * Bunch * Burch * Burdett * Burdine * Burford * Burk/s * Burnett * Burnley * Burns * Burroughs * Burton * Bush * Butler M * Cade M * Cain * Callaway WHOA * Campbell * Cardin * Cargile * Carleton * Carrington * Carrell/Carroll * Carson * Carter M * Casey * Catching * Chaffin * Chambers * Chaney * Chandler * Chapman * Charlton * Chivers * Christmas * Church * Clark * Clement/s * Clemmons * Cleveland * Cloud * Coats * Cob/b * Cochran * Cody * Cofer * Cohron * Colbert * Cole * Coleman * Colley * Collins * Collier * Combs * Connell * Conner * Cook * Cooksey * Cooper * Corbett * Corbin * Cosby * Cotton * Coulter* Cowan * Cox * Crain * Cratin * Crawford * Crawley * Crenshaw * Cresswell * Crews * Crockett * Crutchfield * Cummings * Cunningham * Cureton * Curry * Daniel Whoa * Danner * Darden * Thos.
