VARIOUS LETTERS Dear Martha, Elizabeth, Donna and Phil,(copy to Bobbie and Richard Jacobs) I got Elizabeth's e-mail of 4-3-02 and decided to go ahead and sent you 4 what I have so far. I am not through. I've had so many distractions and I've been back to the Hall Co. courthouse and library several times also to Madison Co. courthouse. I wanted to include more info before posting what I found to the list, but it's taking too long. I was trying to do it all in chronological order, but now I have so little time that I thought I'd send you 4 what I have so far. I have not finished putting all the family names into the bottom part where the family "seems" to fit together. All in all I have come no closer to figuring out how these people relate to M. M. LANDERS and am disappointed with it. The only thing that really peaked my interest in reading through old records was page 165 of the 1870 Habersham Co. Census. The households next to M. M. LANDERS Jr, have two names that look like MARIDA (could be MANDA) SUMMERVILLE and MARADA M. SUMMERVILLE Jr.(child living in the HOUSE household) Makes you wonder if these were named after their neighbor M. M. LANDERS or if these families are related. I haven't been back to the Hab. records to check out who the LETTA (LETTIA) was that married JOHN C. SUMMERVILLE or SARAH who married a HOUSE. I spoke with a lady who called the library while I was working-but I didn't get her name, which was stupid. She mentioned M. M. LANDERS having a sister SALLY and sister SARAH who died in Dawson Co. Ga and are buried there. She found the relation through the CROWS. I have yet to go to Dawson co. or Lumpkin co. to check this out. In my original document, I put in bold all of "my comments or questions" but it doesn't transfer over to e-mail. I'll try changing the font. My hope at this point is that you four will benefit from these local records and along with your information, will be able to come up with something. Good luck! Judith Page 1 of 18 ** PAGE BREAK ** VARIOUS LETTERS March 2002 Notes on LANDERS, BRYAN(T)s, and CROWS of Clarke, Elbert, Habersham, Hall, and Madison Counties in GA as relates to the MERIDA M., LINDSEY and BENJAMIN LANDERS families of Hall Co. GA ISABELL NEESE CROW of Hall Co., Ga. said she was related to FRED LANDERS of the MERIDA M. LANDERS, Jr. Hall Co. Ga. family line, but she didn't know how. ISABELL's husband , W. A. CROW (WILLIAM ALFRED CROW, Jr.), sheriff of Hall Co. GA, had a mother that was a LANDERS and the family was thought to be from Elbert. Co. Ga. According to Mrs. CROW, her husband's mother was ETTA ELIZABETH LANDERS. ETTA had a brother named BEN, who was also a sheriff. She had a sister named ELDORA DODI who lived in Seneca SC. There was someone in the family named LINDSEY M. LANDERS. Keeping that in mind, I gathered the following information from the courthouses, Hall County Library, or relisted LANDERS information gathered from people on the internet. Items are listed by date and sources are given. The purpose of this posting is to try, with your help, to determine how the LINDSEY LANDERS family line relates to the MERIDA M. LANDERS family, as well as how they both relate to the many LANDERS in Madison Co. Ga. (if they do). Miscellaneous Census records are included for: • Clark Co. since MERIDA M. LANDERS Sr. married in Clarke Co., Ga Sept. 1835. • Elbert Co. because Mrs. CROW thought the LANDERS came from Elbert Co. • Habersham Co. because M. M. LANDERS lived there after leaving Clarke Co. • Hall Co. because M. M. LANDERS Jr. and LINDSEY M. LANDERS lived there. • Madison Co. because there is a BENJAMIN there that is thought to be the same person as BENJAMIN T. LANDERS prior to moving to Hall Co. The idea held by some is that he could possibly be the husband of NANCY LANDERS of Hall Co. GA in 1850. 1820 Elbert Co. Census includes these households: HUMPHRY D.
