MIZELLDAVID MIZELL OF EFFINGHAM AND BULLOCH COUNTIES, GA There is confusion between David Mizell b.1770, St. Matthew Parish, GA (son of Charlton Mizell and David Mizell b.1784, GA (son of David Mizell and Sarah _____). David Mizell b.1770 moved to Camden Co, GA and is listed in these censuses: 1820 Camden Co GA, 1830 Alachua Co FL, 1840 Columbia Co FL. The other David Mizell b.1784, GA moved from Bulloch Co, GA about 1810 and settled in Washington Parish, LA. The biggest area of confusion deals with the marriage of David Mizell and Sarah Albritton. Both David Mizell b.1770, GA and David Mizell b.1784, GA have been identified as the husband of Sarah Albritton. Research clearly shows that it was the David Mizell b.1784, who married Sarah Albritton. This becomes clear when the probate of Richard Albritton is examined. It is in St. Helena Parish, LA; 1816, File A-2. In a list of heirs is written, "David Measels husband of Sary Measels Alias Sary Allbritton who departed this life about twelve months ago last April leaving three children legitimate heirs of her body, viz: John, Elvira, and Avarilla Measels." Other significant names in that list are: Robert Sibley, Reddick Sibley, John Richardson. These are significant because they also tie back to Bulloch Co, GA. All the records of Bulloch Co, GA apparently refer
to David Mizell b.1784, GA and his father David Mizell, SR (brother of
Charlton) and the records in Camden Co, GA refer to the David Mizell
b.1770.
These families were closely tied together. It appears that Charlton
Mizell was the brother of David Mizell, who married Sarah Carter.
In 1793, Platt Book "B" of Effingham Co, GA, pg 134 is a survey of the
land of Isaac Sibley. It is bordered by David Mizell and James
Mizell.
I think these two were brothers of Charlton. Avarilla Albritton (daughter
of Richard Albritton) married Robert F. Sibley (son of Isaac Sibley).
Many of the Sibleys, Albrittons, Richardsons, and Mizells moved to Washington
& St. Helena
Two other items of note in Bulloch Co, GA: Conveyance Record A, pg 35. 7 May 1800. David Mizell to Hardy Richardson. Witnesses Simon Williams, William Williams, John Sharp. Sworn before Richard Albritton, J.P. NOTE: William Williams & Simon Williams also moved to Washington Parish, LA bef 1820. This David Mizell is the brother of Charlton Mizell. Conveyance Record A, pg 80. 21 Mar 1803. David Mizell to Daniel Boatwright. Signed by David Mizell & Sarah Mizell. In presence of Hardy Richardson, E.S.P. NOTE: I think this is the same David Mizell as above and gives the wife's first name as Sarah ______. THIS IS NOT SARAH ALBRITTON, since they David Mizell and Sarah Albritton married in 1808. This appears to be the father and mother of David Mizell b.1784. What is the maiden name of Sarah? Dr. E. Russ Williams, Jr. in a phone conversation said her maiden name was Carter. I have found some items that support this. David Mizell b.1814, LA and son of John Mizell b.1790, GA (son of David Mizell & Sarah ______) and Polly Griffin; named his 3d child Carter Mizell. John Mizell is listed in the 1820,1830,1840 and 1850 censuses of Washington Parish, LA. In the 1850 census with John Mizell and his wife is listed Ben Carter age 74, NC. Could this Ben Carter be a younger brother of Sarah Carter Mizell? This is all that I have at this time that supports the theory that Sarah's maiden name was Carter. Here is what I have on David Mizell b.1784, GA: Name: David MIZELL

PAULDING/PAULLINGAround 1850-1860 a family named Boulware moved to Waldo head of household being Martha (husband's first name I'm looking for). According to the census report from Fairfeild county S.Carolina 1850 Martha had I believe 7 children - oldest to youngest being: Anna age 24, Sarah -22, Benjamin -21 , William -19 , Thomas -17 , Robert -16 and Eliza -12. Sarah had four children Martha -6 , Falcoln -4 and Henry -1 and a son from a previous marriage or relationship name being Thomas Lewis -8. Martha had a net worth including slaves in 1850 of roughly $3,500.00. Falcoln moved to the Hawthorn - Cross Creek area
and raised a family and went on to sit on the board of county comissioners
in Alachua county from 1905-1909 and died in 1931. There is a plaque on
the old Alachua county courthouse west wall north end with some men listed
{Falcon being one of them} as serving in a regiment that was commanded
by Stonewall Jackson . This my father showed me years ago and I have been
I have more information but need the name of Sarah's husband to make the right connection to my family. The Paulding-Paulling family has resided as a permanent fixture here in Alachua county ever since Martha moved here around 1850. We are also related to the Hawthorn and Johnson families. Hawthorn being the name to which the town of Hawthorn was named for. I also discovered that Marjorie K. Rawlings mentioned some of my family in one of her books. I would say that a large population of the people buried in the old and new cemeteries in Hawthorne are related to my family. Submitted by: Theodore R.

My Grgrgr Grandfather Elijah O'QUIN and his family settled near the Santa Fe River in the early 1830's. It is believed that his wife's name was either Mary or Annie EDWARDS. Elijah served with Capt. Roberts Co. 6th Regiment, 2nd Brigade, Florida Militia during the 2nd Seminole War. Tragically he and all his family, except for one son were killed by Indians in July of 1838. The family story is that they were picking peaches in an unattended orchard and were almost finished when attacked. Elijah, his wife, and two children were killed, and one daughter, about 13 years of age was abducted. The only survivor was my grgr grandfather, James Bates O'QUIN. According to the story, he was protected somehow by his dog, who dragged into the river and kept the Indians away. There is an accounting of this story in the Florida Herald, dated July 8, 1838, this paper was published in St. Augustine. The newpaper account spells the name "GWINN", but since this is a varient spelling of O'QUIN, it is believed to be the same family. Submitted by: Susan Mahoney |

SHEROUSEGottlieb Sherouse (or Shearouse) was the son of Johannes and Anna M. Mohr (also spelled Maurer or Moore) Shearouse. He was born in the Salzburger settlement of Ebenezer, Effingham Co, Georgia around 1794. He was descended from one of the original Salzburger colonists to arrive in Georgia with General Oglethorpe. His grandfather, Johannes Schraus was 12 years old when the ship Loyal Judith arrived at Savannah in 1734. Gottleib Sherouse and Sarah Salome Freyermuth, daughter of John Peter and Anna Catherine Groll Freyermuth of Saxe Gotha, were married in Ebenezer, Ga on 29 Jan 1818. They would become the progenitors of the Florida branch of the Shearouse/Sherrouse/Sherouse family. Gottlieb appears in the 1820 Lowndes County, Georgia census and in 1825 is in Alachua County. Gottlieb served in the Florida Mounted Volunteers during the Seminole Wars. Gottlieb Sherouse applied for land under the Armed Occupation Act of Florida 1842 which he successfully homesteaded as evidenced by his receipt of title to 150 acres of land. Gottlieb farmed the land and worked as a carpenter. His sons, John C., Israel and Cletus (or Clatus) were also granted land under this same Act. Israel and John Christian also settled in Alachua County. Gottlieb is listed in the records as one of the first voters in the first statehood election held 26 May 1845. He voted at the Ebenezer Meeting House Precinct along with his sons John C. and Israel Sherouse and Benjamin Grantham. The Grantham and Sherouse families would become closely allied over the years through the marriages of Benjamin's and Gottlieb's descendants. Gottlieb and Salome Sherrouse had the following
children: Mary Sherouse m. Abraham Guthrie; John Christian Sherouse b.

near The Ohoopee
River; this area is now part of Treutlen County and Bridge
no longer appears

severely wounded
in the Battle of Gettysburg and it appears that Ephraim
stayed with his
mother and father and ran the family farm until he was in
his early forties,
as he and Louisa did not marry until he was 42 years old. In
the 1880 Emanuel
County census, Ephraim lived with his mother and father, his
sister Sally,
and her son Shelton. Ephraim, Louisa, and their sons John
and Jordan are
