CAUTION:
Please be advised that much of the material
in this section is based on family oral history, and as such, may be in error.
Supporting documentation may not exist. Errors made in one document may be
repeated in other documents. An example of oral history that may be in error is
the story that Nathaniel Booth, a Revolutionary War soldier, came from Halifax
County, Virginia to Elbert County, Georgia. He did indeed come to Elberton
County, Georgia, but no evidence has been found that places him in Halifax
County, Virginia
