James Hooks NC-GA, B abt 1785
I am looking for information on James Hooks born about 1785 in North Carolina. He married Lucy Meeks, July 2, 1848, in Upson County, Ga. I believe this was a second marriage for both James and Lucy. From the 1850 Census for Upson Co., Ga.
James Hooks 65
Lucy 45
John 15
Julia A 15
Susan 8
In 1842, James was a member of the Emmaus Church located in Upson County. Also, on Nov. 20, 1848, James Hooks of Upson County sold 202-1/2 acres - lot #169 in Randolph County to James W. Britt. Randolph County borders Stewart County on the South. A James Hooks appears in the 1840 Census for Stewart County, age 40-50. Based on the number of children and their ages, James Hooks appears to have been in Putnam County, Ga. in 1820, Houston County, Ga. in 1830, in Stewart County, Ga. in 1840, and finally in Upson County.
I am interested in learning about the parents and children of James Hooks.
