Searching for descendants (& information regarding ancestry) of Thomas Atwood, b. 3-9-1802 in Laurens District, South Carolina. He moved to Georgia, married (1) Nancy Austin & had 12 children:
William Allen, b. 1826, d. 1924
Berry Anderson, b. 1827, d. 1893
Thomas Jefferson (Jeff), b. 1830, d. 1920
Felix Harry, b. 1831, d. 1902
A. C. (Clayton), b. 1832, d. 1907
J. C. (Alford), b. 1836, d. 1903
Lewis Tumlin, b. 1839, d. 1862 (Civil War casualty)
George K., b. 1841, d. 1887

Thomas married (2) Martha Phillips Wilson and had 4 children:

Walter Sanford, b. 1858, d. 1946 (my grandfather)
Samuel, b. 1859, d. 1876
Sterling Price, b. 1861, d. ?

I have a copy of the book by Alma Atwood Denny and, with the exception of the descendants of my grandfather, Walter Sanford, most of my information comes from that dear lady's book. I would appreciate hearing from anyone with information regarding this Atwood line. And I would especially like to hear from any descendants of Martha Phillips Wilson!
