477 According to a deed dated 8 Feb 1828, Solomon Bridges was already deceased and had been living in Oglethorpe County. A piece of land he owned in Putnam County was sold at auction to John Dupree.

Notice was published in November 1824 in the Georgia Journal announcing the sale. He must have been dead before that. Another sale happened in 1827. Possibly that could be for his widow.

"Agreeable to an order of the Court of Ordinary of Oglethorpe County, will be sold at the courthouse in Putnam County, on the 1st Tuesday in January next, one tract of land, No. 325, situated in the 2d district formerly Baldwin now Putnam County. Sold as the property of Solomon Bridges, deceased. (Signed) James Bridges, Adm."

478 According to Bible records collected by Merritt Graves from Alex Cooper Cason III, Alexander Vincent and Sophia/Saffira had 8 children. The DAR papers for Juanita Martha Alexander Hunter indicate that Alexander Vincent was born about 1744 and died in 1808 in Murfreesboro, Rutherford Co., TN.

Alexander Vincent signed the Oath of Allegiance in 1778 in Granville Co., NC. He received 9 pounds specie according to report number 84 (undated, report no. 83 was dated July 1873, report no. 85 was dated 1 May 1784). Alexander Vincent is shows holding 640 acres in Granville Co., NC on page 32 of A. Pruitt's Abstracts of Land Entries, Granville County, NC 1778-1877

Alexander was call Sander in the family Bible.

Alexander and Seffira had four sons whose names are known, plus an unknown son and five daughters. All of their children were born in Granville Co, NC according to the family Bible.
 
Vincent, Alexander (I6261)
 
479 According to Bible records, John emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1738. Moved to Maryland and then to North Carolina before his death.

"Colonel John Dickson, born in Ireland, came to America about the year 1736 and located in Chester Co., Pennsylvania, where he lived for a few years. He then lived for a short time in Maryland and located permanently in Duplin (then New Hanover) Co., North Carolina, about the year 1744. [James O. Carr published this same information in 1901 and 1933.] His home place was on Elder, a branch of Maxwell Creek, and was purchased by him in two or more tracts from Captain Archibald Douglass, of the Kingdom of Great Britain and others. His land on Goshen, where he had lived for a short time, was sold to Capt. Joseph Grimes. Colonel Dickson was a merchant. He was well educated. His handwriting among the old records is a model of excellence.

" When the county of Duplin was formed from New Hanover in the year 1749, Colonel John Sampson became the first Register (now Register of Deeds), but on account of the excellence of Colonel Dickson's handwriting, the duties of that office were performed by him as the deputy Register. During the year 1751 he became Clerk of the County Court and served through the year 1762. At the same time he served as county Register from 1753 to 1762. He was a member of the Colonial Assembly in the year 1762 and a militia officer for many years. "Colonel Dickson died at his home on Elder, Christmas Day 1774, leaving a large and prominent family. . . The maiden name of his wife, or wives cannot now be given. Apparently, he was married twice. Two children were born in Ireland and the third child was born in Chester Co., Pennsylvania several years later than the first and second. Evidently two children born in Ireland were by a first wife and all others by a second wife. " 
Dickson, Col. John Sr. (I8183)
 
480 According to Cindy Casey and her extensive research on her web site,John Ussery might have been born around 1718, arrived in Baltimore inthe 1730's and died in 1784. Ussery, John (I6152)
 
481 According to Connie Lampallo, Jordaine is pronounced Jordan in thisbranch of the family. Jordaine, Joan (I4019)
 
482 According to Ed Dunn, despite extensive research, the identity of the progenitor of this line in America has not been identified. The relationship between his children has been verified, however. Bressie (I1173)
 
483 According to Elieen Maynard1 on Familysearch, Ezekiel Biggers, a private in the 27th MS Reg't in the Confederate Army, was captured in Nashville, TN on 16 Dec 1864 and died in prison in 5 Jan 1865 as a prisoner of war. Biggers, Ezekiel O. (I904)
 
484 According to Find A Grave, Don had no middle name on his birth certificate, even though he sometimes was called Ray. Bailey, Donald (I588)
 
485 According to FindaGrave, his name was Thomas Brace Bailey. This could well be since his grandmother was a Bressie / Bracey. Bailey, Thomas B. (I690)
 
486 According to Granddad, married first to a Bailey and then to a Garner,neither related to the rest of the family of Bailey's or Garner's.Mother of Ersie, Ruel, Suel, Lessie. Ruel & Suel are twins.

According to her mother's obituary, she is listed as Myrtle Hyatt,indicating an additional marriage. Hames Heritage says she wasmarried to Tom Bailey, then Mack Garner. 
Hames, Fannie Myrtle (I3241)
 
487 According to her birth record, Edna's parents where Charles F and Cora S. Hooper Ross. He was a box maker from Boston and she was a native of Whitman. Ross, Edna Mae (I5411)
 
488 According to her daughter's 1910 census enumeration, she was born in Alabama. However the other census records all record her as from Georgia.

Perhaps a way to track her down is to find families in 1840 in Cobb or Paulding County, Georgia that she could fit into that are near to Smith families where Thomas would fit.

N5

Backtracking with Millie Allen, we know the following:
Burial - 1893, Paulding County, Georgia
Death - 1893, Paulding County, Georgia
Residence - 1860-1893, Paulding County, Georgia
Marriage 3 - 1865, Paulding County, Georgia
Residence - 1850, Cherokee Co, Alabama
Marriage 2 - before 1848 birth of her child, probably AL
Birth of Rhoda - 1844 - AL
Marriage 1 - before 1843 birth of her child, GA or AL
Birth - about 1821, probably GA

So, as a hypothesis, Millie was born in GA around 1821. She married Thomas Smith around 1843 in Georgia. I suspect that they moved to Alabama, probably Cherokee County area. He died shortly afterward, probably without a will since he was likely very young and without property. Though having a daughter, there may have been a guardian appointed. But again, without property, perhaps not. Millie likely remarried fairly quickly, being young and with a child, to James Armer. He was a little older and had lost his wife and had young children to raise who needed a mother. He died after only a few years as well. Somehow, she ended up moving back to Paulding County, Georgia. What was the attraction back to Paulding and how did she end up there? Did she come alone?

Possibly, Millie and her family moved to Alabama and she married Thomas there, since Rhoda always reports that her father was from Alabama. 
Allen, Millie (I158)
 
489 According to her son, Gill, Lois had five husbands.

I have seen records of her death in Hayward CA, as well as San Leandro

CA. 
Wilson, Lois Rebecca (I6577)
 
490 According to his daughter, Peter Bailey was awarded a private pension from the US House of Representatives. There is a record that he petitioned to be restored to the pension roll during the 25th Congress (March 1837-March 1839) during its second session. This was referred to the committee on Revolutionary Pensions and is recorded as a Petition on Journal Page 271 for the 25th Congress, 2nd session. Bailey, Peter Cock (I660)
 
491 According to his headstone request, Griff enlisted 15 Aug 1917 and was discharged 26 May 1919. He served as a 2nd Lt. in the U.S. Army. 334 FA, 162 FA, 107 FA, 28 Div Lee, Griff Calicutt (I4255)
 
492 According to his obituary, Charlie moved to Eunice in 1949 and lived there until his death. Hudson, Charlie Doyle (I3732)
 
493 According to his obituary, Will Higgs had been working with the Democrat Record since its founding in May 1910. Higgs, John William (I3534)
 
494 According to History of Texas, Tarrant, Parker, Dick lived in Galveston and died in 1850 at the time of the epidemic there. However, since he was living in 1852 in Navarro county, this is unlikely to be completely accurate.

There was a yellow fever outbreak in Galveston in 1853 that killed 523 people. 
Bailey, Richard A. (I664)
 
495 According to John Miller's estate, he could have been Matthis instead of Matthews. Mathis, Zebulon (I4489)
 
496 According to Judson Councill, Isaac is found in Knox Co., Tennessee as early as 1811. He and Susan were married in Roane Co., Tennessee. They moved from Tennessee to Jackson Co., Alabama, then to Madison Co., Alabama. Eventually, they moved on to Arkansas, where both died at the home of their son John in Franklin Co., Arkansas.

In order to figure out the Council family and its connection to the Hodges Councils in Alabama, I need to track its movements through Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas for this family and its descendants.

In the 1830 Census, the family is listed as 1 male 40-50, 1 female 40-50, 1 male 20-30, 2 males 10-15. Both girls are already out of the house at this point. Presumably, the male age 20-30 is Uriah. On page 333 of the 1830 census is Jesse Council, whose household includes 1 male 90-100 and 1 female 60-70 and no one else. This is a likely connection for Isaac's father.

In the 1840 Census, the family is listed as 1 male 50-60, 1 female 50-60, 1 male 20-30. Immediately next door is John Council(00011-00001). Chances are that this is the son John.

Some have suggested Isaac was born in Tennessee, but in the 1860 census, he reports as being from N. Carolina.

Unfortunately, census from Tennessee for 1800, 1810, 1820 are pretty much missing.

Over the time that we are looking for the Councils & Allisons, the area went from Green County, NC to State of Franklin to State of TN. And it appears that these folks were along the borders of Green, Knox, & Roane counties. Looks like the Allisons ended up in the part that became Roane but maybe the Councils were in Knox.

Hypothesis for now: (2019-06-14)
Jesse Council is the father of Isaac. Jesse is married to Elizabeth. These two stay close together for several years.
Hodges, John, and Matthew may be other sons or brothers to Jesse. Hodges is married to Rachel. 
Council, Isaac (I2126)
 
497 According to O.L. Bailey in the history of Tarrant and Parker counties:
* At the time of publication, only three children were still living
* John and Robert both received headrights in Titus county. One died in 1844, one in 1850.
* Richard came to Texas in 1849 and died in Galveston in 1850
* Living are O.L, Thomas B. of Jenson, AR, and Rufus of Russellville.
* Moved to Franklin Co., AR in 1837 
Bailey, Otway Licepious (I656)
 
498 According to Robert Hale, Isham went forward with Wilcox's brigade in Pickett's Charge at the Battle of Gettysburg. He was captured and spent 3 months in a Union prison camp, where he died in Nov 1863. Harris, Isham David (I3345)
 
499 According to the 1850 census, John was 21 years old rather than 17. Womack, John Tipton (I6609)
 
500 According to the 1880 Miller Co., AR census, Emma is from Illinois. Her father is from New York, and her mother from Kentucky. By the 1880 Census, the father is not with the family. Emma L. (I4130)
