I am seeking information on the PAYNE family. My great-grandfather William F. Payne was born in Gwinnett Co. in 1861. I have been unable to locate the names of his parents. On his marriage certificate there is an H.L. Payne serving as bond. I know that H.L. Payne enlisted in the Confederate Army in Gwinnett Co. in 1861. He served until 1865. H.L. Payne received a pension for his service and indicates that he has resided in Gwinnett Co. since approximately 1888. I am assuming that he perhaps moved out of state after the war. He married a Leetie Rogers that I believe was also from Gwinnett Co. I do not know of any children. I am pursuing information on H.L. Payne because he is my only link with William Franklin Payne.

My Great grandfather, Ervin Green Jackson, lived in Gwinnett County for most of his life. He was b. 25 May 1875 and d. 9 March 1945. He is the son of Albert and Elizabeth Jackson. He married first Hattie (?), and second, my great grandmother Pearl Minerva Dutton Bennett. There were 2 children by Hattie; Harvey T., and Martin Allen, and 9 children by my great grandmother; Dollie Mae, Robert Lee, Era, Walter, Mamie, Annie B., Wilfred, Homer, & Logan. Ervin G. Jackson is known to have had 3 jobs. the first occupation was farmer. The second was a railroad worker, and his 3rd job was as a prison guard. I have a poem that was written as a memorial to him by one of the prisoners. It mentions the "Old River Camp". I am interested in any information on this family, but especially any information I can find on the "Old River Camp" prison. I believe that this prison camp was probably in Gwinnett County or very nearby since that is where my great grandfather lived. I also wondered if "Old River Camp" was the name of the prison or just a nickname for it. I also would like to know its location. Because of the name, I am inclined to believe that there may have been a River nearby. I would appreciate any information that anyone can give me. If you have anything on this family, or on the prison camp, please e-mail me at admarsh@paradise.net.
Thank you for any help you can give me.

From: GenSurfer@aol.com I am looking for information on the CRUMLEY family of Gwinnett Co., GA. My maternal grandfather, William Fletcher CRUMLEY was born in Flowery Branch, Gwinnett Co., GA, on 11 June 1889. He married Inez DODD in 1904. They had four sons: (1) Horace, (2) Sewell, (3) Hoy, and (4) Howard, between 1906 & 1912, while living in Gwinnett Co. I remember my grandfather telling me that he worked at the horse collar factory in Buford and also took care of the municipal horses. I believe his father's name was Sam or perhaps William Samuel CRUMLEY. His mother was Mary Alyce WILLIAMS. He had about 14 brothers and sisters - among whom were Sally, Beulah and the youngest of which was Clyde, born in 1899. Anyone with information on this family please contact me at the above E-Mail address. And, many thanks... GenSurfer

I am looking for anyone else researching this family. It appears that Lewis Burrel came to Gwinnett before 1820. His Father, Dr. John, was a French Physician who came over with Lafayette and fought in the Rev. War. It appears from his widow's pension application that he was present when Corwallis surrendered to Washington. The main families in Gwinnett were Lewis, John, and William. I have them on my home page http://www.tgn.net/~dbaker/

I am also kin to the COLE, LANDERS and CORLEY families in Gwinnett Co. I hope to get my over 8,000 person database (a good portion of whom are from Gwinnett) up on the web at some point, but until then will answer questions on names as soon as I can. And if you are kin to any of these names, I would especially like to hear from you and exchange information.

From: "LARRY L. McLAUGHLIN

I have quite a lot of research on a Marandy/Mirandy Clinton Malone (md. Nancy Drummond, 1833 in Gwinnett Co., Ga.-license obtained in Walton Co., Ga.) who lived in Reid's District until the late 1850's. Family lore is M.C. Malone raced horses, and he and a group of other Gwinnett Co., Ga. families (Hills, Reids, Bridges families) moved to Clarke Co., Ga. One son married a Hill, one daughter a Hill, and one daughter a Reid in Gwinnett Co., Ga. 1850's. I have estate returns, etc. on this family. I was told by a Reid descendant that they (families listed above) traveled by wagon train with one wagon loaded with gold, but met on hard times in Arkansas, and had to spend most of money just to eke out a daily existence. Have done a lot of research on the Reid family, which intermarried with Gastons...and some minor research on the Hills, which had Walton Co., Ga. ties. I have seen forms of Marandy Clinton Malones name in a Gwinette Co., Ga. family of Nathan Clarke/Clark (Malone Clinton Clark and Maude Marandy Clark) Searching for any ties with a Clark family. Marandy also seen in Gwinnett Co., Ga. record with a Nathan Harris, William Whorton/Whorten, who married Dolly Sansom in 1813 Jasper Co., Ga.(a sister of Marandy's mother). Searching for any family members of the above to exchange info with.

Hi Bill,

I saw your Gwinnett Co., GA HOMEPAGE on the Georgia GenWeb. Very Impressive! The Garmany's (Hamilton & James) who lived there very early, are brothers to my 4g-grandfather, William Garmany, who lived there also, before he moved to AL. I have information on Hamilton (moved to Walker Co. Ga.) and James (he was a Dr. and his family went to AR) as well as all their brothers and sisters, that I will gladly share.

I will be glad to share this data to others who are interested. You could enter me as a "Garmany" researcher if you desire and feel free to give my name to others who are interested in this family.
