Hi, everybody, I'm back from our vacation to Myrtle Beach. I think that the South is so beautiful and those of you that live there are so fortunate. Here in IL it is flat and boring. I really hated to come back home. Went to the Archives in Columbia SC on a Sunday afternooon from 2:00 until it closed at 5. Got all that I could in that short time. They were closed all day on Monday, so that was my only chance. Susie, I focused on trying to find a marriage for Jeremiah or Daniel Dutton. Went through all the early marriage sources they had and did not find either. The librarian said that it is possible they might show up in NC. I spend 1 day at the Greenwood, SC regional library to look at the Abbeville and area SC and GA records. They did not have as much as I hoped they would. The best place I went to was in Athens, GA. I spend the entire day there and wish I had more time to spend there. That library is full of goodies, and not just for GA. It is a new, big library and has everything------some excellent books and volumes. If anyone gets a chance to go there, do it. It will be well worth your time. I just touched upon the tip of all the sources there. They even have all the civil war records for both sides and Cherokee books----all the rolls and those that applied and were refused. There is also much on the various religions, ministers, conferences, and they go way back. Athens is a lovely town and is a great place to visit. Some of you may already have some of the info that I recorded so please bear with me. I had little data, except what I got from Susie, so most of it was new to me. I will send what I got from GA in this message. I did many census rolls as we think that my Duttons may have been in Elbert County, GA. In a book, A LIST OF THE EARLY SETTLERS OF GA, edited by E.
