I looked in "A History of Columbian County" and "Discovering Genealogical
Roots in Suwannee County" and there are no Avants or Copeland. There is an
A. Avant listed in 1847 Tax List for Madison Co. Know this is not much help
but at least, you know where not to look. Louise

>Hi all,
I think you would enjoy reading the book if you can get it. I bought it
from Heritage Press and it may still be available. It is a paperback and I
think I only paid about $12.95 for it. Another possibility, is to have your
local library get it on inter-library loan from the State Library in
Tallahassee. I frequently order books from them. If you are not able to
get it, contact me later and I will do the look-ups for you. Louise

Did you find the tombstones for Harts, Sarah Melinda Herring and the
Faulkners in that cemetery? Louise

Pg. 35, there is Asa Gaskins listed as a Suwannee County landowner before
1858.
Asa Gaskins is on the 1845 Voters List in the Mineral Springs Precinct,
Columbia Co.
1866 Marriages: Harry Coleman to Minnie Flowers, on Dec. 8.
That is all in History of Suwannee Co.
In "History of Columbia County" there is a listing from the business
directory of the Georgia Southern and Florida Railway for 1901 and it shows
R.M. FLOWERS - Dry Goods
No Flowers in there.
That's all I have. Louise

Do you have access to "Discovering Genealogical Roots in Suwannee County,
Florida". There are a number of references to Bird and Roberts. Louise
