My Family, the Pioneers of Forsyth County, GeorgiaUpdated May 31, 2002

|
I am descendant of the Anglin,Hansard, Shelton,Samples,Cook and Phillips' Families. They were some of the families that were the pioneers of Forsyth County. They were my mother and father's ancestors, Violet Etrulya Cook and Dorsey H. Phillips. They were part of making it what it has become today. I have learned so much about my family thru this research.You will see that the Hansard name came from Handforth and somehow over the moves and the years it evolved into Hansard for some of the descendents as well as Hansford for others. I found that many of Cook's married Hansard's, many of Shelton's married Hansard's and many Phillips' married Samples, etc.The most surprising thing I found out was that not only was my mother descended from Rev. Richard Phillips but she married a Phillips, my father Dorsey H. Phillips who was killed in a motor vehicle accident when I was a child.I haven't been able to find any common ancestry in these two Phillips families at this point.If there is anyone who may know any of these people and would like to contribute to this family tree I would welcome it. This still a work in progress.I hope you enjoy reading it as much I have enjoyed creating it... I grew up with a large number of these people I know most of the information is correct. Please feel free to contact me if you have anything to add or correct...Thanks
