William Brackett found 1799, Georgia
I found a William Brackett on the Georgia Tax Index, 1789-1799, in Jefferson Co, GA, Tarver District, 1799.I also found marriage records for Jefferson Co, for Nancy Brackett m. Lemuel Morgan, 1813; John Brackett m. Sarah Bishop, 1817. I didn't find a Brackett on the 1820-50 census for Jefferson. Earlier census weren't available. These are the earliest dates that I have seen forBracketts in Georgia. Jefferson Co was formed in 1796 from Burke and Warren Cos. and is located in central-east portion of GA, relatively near Augusta.Land grants/bounties were given during the timeframe that William is found here.Any thoughts on relationship of William toJohn and Nancy; or our Bracketts. There was a William in VA and in early NC records.
