Victorian Maysville: Richard Watson Redmon line
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2011/10/richard-watson-redmon-line.html
Thursday, October 27, 2011. Richard Watson Redmon line. Today I spent a lot of time working on working on the Redmon family. Basically all I knew was that Daisy Lou Shubert's maiden name was Redmon and she had a brother named Richard Henry Redmon, whose obituary I had recently come across from 2007 on the internet.

Victorian Maysville: December 2005
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2005. Yes, it was hard to believe myself when I tallied my paid outs for copies of microfilm records of newspapers that I've printed over the past year at the Commerce Library. It did indeed add up to just under $200 in photocopies! Imagine if I had to tally the man hours I've spent researching Maysville. There's no telling what that's worth. And all for what, you ask? Finished updated inventory of Sunrise Cemetery. Now comes the task of typing the updated information into my Excel...

Victorian Maysville: Digging through deeds for early Maysville businesses
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2012/01/digging-through-deeds-for-early.html
Monday, January 02, 2012. Digging through deeds for early Maysville businesses. I was able to spend two days at the Banks County Superior Court Deed Room during my Christmas vacation. My goal was to try to identify the chain of ownership on the buildings on North Main Street in Maysville, Banks Co, GA, running from the current post office down to the Community Club. However, the post office lot itself took me almost one day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Victorian Maysville: January 2006
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 07, 2006. Mrs Betty Short Brooks loaned me a collection of old newspaper clippings that she had which she felt would interest me. There were lots of pictures from the early 1970's in the clippings. I spent most of today scanning those photos and transcribing the text. I was particularly fond of the pictures of Perino Boswell's early days as a Maysville policeman. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Ethereal template. Powered by Blogger.

Victorian Maysville: June 2006
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 03, 2006. I'm excited to have received a picture of James Jackson Meaders, Maysville's first mayor. I had been working on the Suddath line of Gillsville and Maysville with Mrs. Betty Rose Suddath Young of Macon GA and in the process discovered that she was related to the Meaders line and had a picture of J. J. Meaders. I hope to include this picture in my future book on Maysville's early history. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Ethereal template. Powered by Blogger.

Victorian Maysville: The Six-Hour Marriage Records Marathon
http://victorianmaysville.blogspot.com/2011/10/six-hour-marriage-records-marathon.html
Friday, October 28, 2011. The Six-Hour Marriage Records Marathon. Let's just say the Probate Court records office is not that user friendly when it comes to having a place to sit and work. The large marriage ledger books are not only heavy but also not easy to maneuver around. The reading area is about chest high so a chair won't even reach high enough if you did want to sit down.
