  Pioneers of the Wiregrass,  Volume 1

PofW Vol. #01Volume 1 of Pioneers of the Wiregrass begins a new series of books and is an expansion of Judge Huxford’s original seven volumes of Pioneers of Wiregrass Georgia and the Huxford Genealogical Society’s publication of volumes eight through twelve. The original twelve volumes cover the Wiregrass area of Georgia and the adjacent counties in Florida.  They also include the ancestors of pioneer settlers of the coverage area who lived in other regions of the country.

Over the years, there have been many requests to expand the geographical area covered in the books. After twelve volumes, the board of directors of the Huxford Genealogical Society felt that the time had come to respond to these requests and include the Wiregrass counties of South Alabama and Northwest Florida. This volume has some pioneers who lived in the expansion areas and later volumes will include even more. There are a few sketches that are re-prints of ones printed in Pioneers of Wiregrass Georgia, usually with substantial additional information.

Tattnall County, Georgia, Loose Papers,
1801 - 1845, Volume 1
This volume is now ready for shipment.

Abstracted by Sabina J. Murray, and Compiled by Huxford Genealogical Society
With Grant Provided by: The R. J. Taylor, Jr. Foundation

At long last, the publication in the Spring of 2005 of the first volume of one of the most interesting and informative genealogy books ever compiled about Georgia's people and their roots.  This is a hard cover book of 350 pages plus a full name index.  

At long last, the publication in the Spring of 2005 of the first volume of one of the most interesting and informative genealogy books ever compiled about Georgia's people and their roots.  This is a hard cover book of 350 pages plus a full name index. 

Tattnall County was created in 1801 by the State Legislature although immigration into this area of Georgia began as early as 1784 when Washington County was formed.  For the first 20 years of its existence, Tattnall County was a frontier county.  When the Creeks ceded the territory that would become Appling, Irwin and Early Counties, large numbers of Tattnall County families relocated further south, taking advantage of the Georgia Land Lottery opportunities in those areas.  Many other families continued on through Georgia to settle in Florida and the other Gulf states, as those areas were also opened up for settlement.  As a result of this mass migration, there are very few long-time families in those parts of the South who cannot trace one or more of their ancestors to a family who once lived in Tattnall County.

The loose papers in this book date from the first year of Tattnall County's creation and continue well into the 19th century.  While this volume only contains these records through 1845, the second volume will be printed, that will continue them through 1870. 

In general, these loose papers consist of civil and criminal court citations, indictments and sentences; Grand Jury charges; arrest warrants; witness examinations; depositions; appearance bonds; bastardy bonds; fidelity bonds; adultery charges; divorce decrees; and so on.  They identify all kinds of county court officers, among them lawyers, judges, justices of the peace, inferior court justices, grand jurors, petit jurors, sheriffs, their deputies, constables, and witnesses.  In all, thousands of names are mentioned, as the extensive index so clearly reveals.  Even the names of persons and officials from neighboring counties, such as Screven, Montgomery and Bulloch Counties, appear in the records.

These abstracts were copied directly from the original documents contained in boxes in the Tattnall County Courthouse attic.  It should be pointed out that they have never been photocopied nor have they been reproduced on microfilm or microfiche.  Therefore, the only way to read these documents, other than in this book, is to go to the Courthouse, where it is difficult to locate the records or even gain access to them.  Hence, the dire need for this book.

Tattnall County, Georgia, Loose Papers,
1845 - 1870, Volume 2

Abstracted by Sabina J. Murray, and Compiled by Huxford Genealogical Society
With Grant Provided by: The R. J. Taylor, Jr. Foundation

This is the second volume of one of the most interesting and informative genealogy books ever compiled about Georgia's people and their roots.  This is a hard cover book of 350 pages plus a full name index. 

Tattnall County was created in 1801 by the State Legislature although immigration into this area of Georgia began as early as 1784 when Washington County was formed.  For the first 20 years of its existence, Tattnall County was a frontier county.  When the Creeks ceded the territory that would become Appling, Irwin and Early Counties, large numbers of Tattnall County families relocated further south, taking advantage of the Georgia Land Lottery opportunities in those areas.  Many other families continued on through Georgia to settle in Florida and the other Gulf states, as those areas were also opened up for settlement.  As a result of this mass migration, there are very few long-time families in those parts of the South who cannot trace one or more of their ancestors to a family who once lived in Tattnall County.

The Tattnall loose papers in this book date from 1845, forty four years following the county's creation and continue through 1870.  While this volume only contains the records from 1845 to 1870, the loose papers included in Volume one date from the first year of Tattnall County's creation, 1801, and continue well into the 19th century.

In general, these loose papers consist of civil and criminal court citations, indictments and sentences; Grand Jury charges; arrest warrants; witness examinations; depositions; appearance bonds; bastardy bonds; fidelity bonds; adultery charges; divorce decrees; and so on.  They identify all kinds of county court officers, among them lawyers, judges, justices of the peace, inferior court justices, grand jurors, petit jurors, sheriffs, their deputies, constables, and witnesses.  In all, thousands of names are mentioned, as the extensive index so clearly reveals.  Even the names of persons and officials from neighboring counties, such as Screven, Montgomery and Bulloch Counties, appear in the records.
