Can anyone look up Goodwins and Sawyers in the Athens-Clarke County Georgia Cemeteries book published in 1999, or tell me how to acquire a copy?

My 5th Great Grandfather John Goodwin acquired property, allegedly along Blackberry Creek, and adjacent to property acquired by John Sawyer at about the same time. They raised children including Asa Goodwin and Margaret Sawyer, who married in Clarke County in 1808. The JP whose signature appears on their marriage certificate also signed the two property records of the two Johns.

I suspect John Goodwin was a descendant of the Goodwins who moved from VA to SC to the Columbia SC and Pee Dee River area in the early 1700s. Any data about either John, their unknown spouses, or Margaret and Asa and siblings will be very important to me.

Thanks,

Otis V. Goodwin III
