In Reply to: Meeks Family of N. GA by Brian Braham	of 1662

This is the information I have:

Ancestors of William Hughey Meeks: (My grandfather - pappa Meeks)
Note:       In looking up (Lina) Smallwood, information was found
       on the internet where Debbie Parsons (debpar@wizard.com)
       and Angela I. Meeks (desperadoangel@yahoo.com) have been
       documenting Patrick Littleton Meeks who was pappa's brother.
       And states that 'Hugh' Meeks married 'Lina' Smallwood.
       It goes all the way back to 1699 !

Based upon that information, and information confirmed and verified
by India Meeks (my Auntie), the following are the ancestors of William Hughey Meeks.

William Hughey Meeks:

Father: James Morgan MEEKS b: ABT. 1837
Mother: Sarah PERRY - According to India Meeks, may be Sarah Jane Perry
as her Grandmother was Jane (Perry) Meeks
