Volume 13 January 1995 Can You Identify? FFRU Vol 13 - Page 1 (2nd Edition) About the Cover: “All Franklin’s” Submitted by Elaine Franklin Giddens, Rt 2, Box 212, El Campo, TX 77437 The picture on the front is that of two unidentified couples. They are assumed in both cases to be husband and wife. This picture was part of the personal effects passed down to me by a member of my Grandfather’s family through his second marriage. After the death of my Grandmother - Melissa Jane (Renfro) Franklin in 1917; he married #2 Mrs. Anna (Huffman) Burkhalter. It was one of the Burkhalter children that was kind enough to see that a Franklin descendent was in possession of this picture as well as others that I have not been able to identify. The only identification on the back of the picture is written “All Franklin’s”[sic]. I am not sure that this information is correct as there were other inconsistencies concerning information about my Grandfather that was the result of the persons giving the information not knowing the correct facts. For example his death certificate on file at the Hemphill County Courthouse, Sabine County, Texas, states that his mother was a “Cobb.” This is incorrect - his first wife’s mother was a “Cobb”. The death certificate further states that he was born in 1864. This is incorrect as he is recorded on the 1860 Trinity County, Texas census as 1 year old. This picture was once identified by an elderly aunt of mine who seemed unsure at the time; said the younger couple in the back was that of my grandfather and his first wife. I know from fact that my grandfather would not allow anyone to take his picture, so this leaves me with questions. If this is my Grandfather is it possible that the older couple seated could be that of my Great grandfather and his wife?? According to my father, his parents were married at the home of William Plumer and Lovina (John’s parents). Please, can anyone help?? 1. William Plumer Franklin, Sr. (born 13 Mar 1822 Louisiana; died about 1886 Angelina County, Texas) married about 1843 to Lovina Waters/Walters (born about 1825 Mississippi; died 1871/1880 Angelina County, Texas). Their son: 2. John Watson Franklin (born 30 Mar 1859 Trinity County, Texas; died 31 Aug 1935 Sabine County, Texas buried Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas) married 17 Mar 1881 to Melissa Jane Renfro (born 1858 Rankin County, Mississippi; died 26 Apr 1918 Sabine County, Texas) daughter of Nathan R. and Elizabeth (Cobb) Renfro. Their son: 3. William “Willie” Watson Franklin (born 15 Nov 1894 Manning, Angelina County, Texas; died 15 Aug 1988 Shreveport, Louisiana buried Rosevine Cemetery, Rosevine, Sabine County, Texas) married 23 Aug 1928 to Viola Parnell (born Washington, St. Laundry Parish, Louisiana). Their daughter: Elaine Franklin married Louie E. Giddens.

We are starting 1995 off with a lot of new research materials that have been added to our Library. The following information sources are available. If you have a Surname that you would like a search done for, let me know. New CDs: Arkansas Land Records, Florida Land Records (1700’s-1908 Series #2); Louisiana Land Records 1700-1908 (Series #3); Marriage Records Early-1850 West of Mississippi River; Marriage Records Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas; Marriages Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina; Marriages Louisiana; Marriages Kentucky, Ohio, Illinois, Tennessee, Indiana; Marriage Records Southern States; Marriages Illinois, Indiana early - 1850; Marriage Records Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina; Everton Computerized Family File Vol. 1and2 and Root Cellar Vol.1; Social Security Death Benefit Records 1937 - June 1992; Tidbit: If you are looking for ancestors from Southwest Georgia, your queries will be printed in the Colquitt County Family Album published each Monday in The Moultrie Observer. Just send your query to PO Box 889, Moultrie, GA 31776. FFRU has Franklin data as extracted from “The Andrea Papers” submitted by Dan Nelson, 14686 Hiddenspring Cir, Chino Hill, CA 91709. I wanted to pass this information on to you in its entirety, however, because these papers are so extensive I felt that it would be best to include them as a separate publication a few pages with each quarterly. If you will get a 3 ring binder and insert these pages as you receive them, hopefully, you will eventually have the entire collection. I will even punch the 3 ring holes for you. The final pages will include an full name index. This collection is so valuable for those of us researching North and South Carolina. Andrea was a genealogist by profession and did a very thorough job with his research.

In Georgia, one method in tracing ancestors is to become familiar with the tax laws of the state and their usage. Often, you can use tax lists to find an obscure ancestor or with the tax records you can prove that he lived or owned land in a certain area. A tax is compulsory contribution from the person to a government to defray the expenses incurred in the common interest of all. Various methods have been used throughout the history of Georgia to lay and collect these taxes. During the American Revolution, there were no state tax laws; even through there were twelve parishes, and the ceded lands that made up Georgia at this time. The last colonial tax law had been passed in Georgia in 1773. It had imposed a tax on every one hundred acres of land without regard to quality. Town lots, buildings and other improvements were taxed. This law included a tax on imported merchandise, and on exported deer and beaver skins. It also included a tax on slaves and free persons of color. The property evaluations were made by tax assessors, and the taxes were received by collectors, all were appointed and named within the act itself. The act specified how much money was to be raised by the taxes and how it was to be spent. But, the Revolution put an end to the colonial government, so with the Constitution of 1777 there were 8 counties established. Wilkes from the ceded land of 1773 came into existence at that time. Then Richmond, Burke, Effingham, Chatham, Liberty, Glynn and Camden became counties instead of parishes. After the writing of the Georgia Constitution, an act for taxes were passed in 1778. This, along with the Tax Act of 1783, laid the basis for Georgia Tax laws through 1851. The 1778 Act was similar to the Act of 1773, but there were some exceptions. This act included a poll tax on white males between 15 and 60 years of age, but his was reduced for anyone serving in the upcoming Georgia campaign against the British in East Flordia. This act placed a tax on professionals, excluding ministers. There was a tax on politicians, state employees, money loaned on interest, and wheeled vehicles. FFRU Vol 13 - Page 13 (2nd Edition) In 1783 Washington and Franklin counties were made from new territory, and another tax law was passed. Not only was it based on the quantity, but also on the quality of the land. Pine land was the least valuable. Oak and hickory land was the most heavily taxed. Tax rates were adjusted to reflect the closeness of the land to navigable waterways, swamps, or the sea. Certain property had a special tax. By 1783, each militia district within each county had to have a tax receiver appointed locally to make a district tax return. Then, a tax collector for the county was appointed by the state, and he collected taxes and determined defaulters. Other things taxed were wheeled vehicles, white males of 21, town lots, slaves and free persons of color, buildings and improvements, merchandise, lawyers and doctors and a double tax was imposed on uncultivated land that was left abandoned for a year or more by a man over 21. This stressed the importance of cultivable land at the time. After 1789, Georgia required voters to have paid all taxes levied in the year preceding the election. So taxes and elections were tied together before a man could vote. Between the time of the American Revolution and 1800 there are fifty-one tax digests available at the Georgia Archives. The majority of the early material covers Greene, Jefferson, Wilkes, Oglethorpe, Lincoln, Tattnall and Clarke Counties. From 1800 to 1809 there are 101 tax digest from various Georgia Counties at the George archives and 126 digests from 1810-1819. The tax law of 1802 based land taxes on a millage rate instead of a specific amount listed in the law. This was reflected in the Tax Digests of 1805. By 1820 there were 50 counties that had been created in the state of Georgia and 47 were still in existence. Houston, Bourbon and Walton were outside the present boundaries of Georgia. Houston and Walton should not be confused with the Houston and Walton of Today. Franklin, Twiggs and Rabun are not in the 1820 US Georgia Census, but there were tax digests. After 1842, white male citizens 60 and above in age were exempt from poll tax. By 1851, this was only a 25 cents tax per poll. In 1852, the ad valorem system for land tax was used for the first time in the state. This based on tax on the percentage of property values and is still used today. Ad valorem tax is a tax according to the market value of the property. Before 1852, the principal reliance of the state for revenue had been a specific tax upon real estate without particular reference to value. The Tax Act of 1852 placed a one mill tax upon all real and personal property. There was a slave tax of $1.50 on all slaves not over 60 years of age or infirm. This act included a tax on money, railroad stock tax, and a pony homestead tax. A five dollar tax on free persons of color was also levied. By 1880, the millage rate on property had increased to three and one-half mills. The property tax yielded 83% of the tax in Georgia. This was 80 cents per capita. By 1900, the millage rate was 5 mills on property. Poll taxes brought in $250,000, and 70% of the general tax came from property. The poll tax was abolished by the General Assembly in 1945. Property taxes are still collected and as of 1988, only about 2.7% of general Georgia taxes came from property. William and Rebecca (Boone) Franklin Submitted by Marie J.

Baker, Associate Professor, History Abraham Baldwin College, Tifton, Georgia and Trustee, Odom Library The Creeks were one of the Five Civilized Tribes of Indians which also included the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw and the Seminole. When Georgia became a colony, the Creek Indians were on lands that now form the states of Georgia and Alabama. They were not a unified group of Indians, but they were one of the most powerful tribes in North America. At one time they included more than 50 towns. A group of these people lived throughout the south Georgia area. They were originally of the Muskogee stock, and were so called. They lived along creeks and rivers when the English arrived. So, the English labeled them as the Creeks. The Confederacy was divided into two groups, the Upper and Lower Creeks. The Lower Creeks lived on the Flint, the Ocmulgee and the Chattahoochee Rivers in Georgia. The Upper Creeks lived along the Coosa, Tallopoosa and Alabama Rivers in Alabama. The basic tribal unit of the Creeks was the town which they called the idalwa. The oldest Georgia towns were probably Cusseta and Coweta. The town people would refer to themselves as Cowetas or Cussetas, by the name of the town. The micco was the chief of the town elected for life by the council. The town’s name was used as the name of the micco. The towns were divided into white towns and red towns. The white towns were the peace-loving towns. The red towns were the warring towns. The General Council of all the confederacy decided on war, but they met in a red town. The war chief was always a member of a red town who led the whites and reds in battle. Peace talks were always held in a white town. The Tribes in the confederacy were based on the clan system. Clans were held together by strong bonds. They maintained control of the individuals. The same clans were found in most of the towns. Clans such as the Alligator, Bear or Beaver were clans. The most important Creek clan was the Wind Clan. Creeks traced their family tree only through their mother. Children were part of their mother’s clan and were considered to be related to all her relatives, but not to their father’s relatives. Marriage within a clan was viewed as incest and therefore not allowed. When a marriage took place the male moved from the household of his mother into the household of his wife’s mother. He moved physically, but his allegiance was still to the household of his mother. He had learned his skills from his mother’s brothers or their uncles. The father was responsible for teaching the boy children of his sisters. The Creeks believed the universe was made up of three worlds: this world, the upper world and the lower world. The Master of Breath or Esaugeta Emissee was the spirit who watched over the Creeks. The wolf and the rattlesnake occupied positions of deference among the Creeks. Magic was important. Each town had priests. The Creek Indian was primarily agricultural, supplemented by hunting and fishing. The labor of the town was divided between the sexes except for the communal work in the fields. From the earliest days, the Creeks formed strong alliances with the English. They established trade connections with the English. They traded with the English and received guns, whiskey, steel, knives, iron pots, cotton cloth and etcetera. The deer skin was important in trade for the Creek Indian. They were paid well by the Englishman. This caused deer to become scarce and the hunter had to go further and further from his FFRU Vol 13 - Page 17 (2nd Edition) town to secure the skins. The middle man usually lived among the Indians and often intermarried with them. By 1800, names such as McGillivray, McIntosh, Weatherford, McPherson, Matthews, Carr and Hawkins were familiar to the Creeks. Mixed bloods among the Creeks, especially of British descendants, assumed positions of leadership. The children of such unions played important roles for both the Englishman and the Creeks. The Red Sticks wanted all Creeks to return to traditional ways and stop following the white man by buying goods, selling their crops, living in non-Indian houses, and being non-Indian farmers. I recently received a book on Creek Indians East of the Mississippi. It is an index register of friendly Creek Indians of Alabama and northwest Florida. It also includes documents and research notes.
