I'm not convinced that this Sarah FORTNER was a Swain.There does appear to be a connection to the SWAIN family because the surname appears quite frequently as a given name.She was born about 1800 and first appears in GA in Emanuel County on the 1820 Census p. 82.She is listed as a female aged 16-26 with one son age under 10.The family was cut out of Emanuel County and into Johnson with its formation.Sarah is buried in the Fortner family cemetery near Kite, GA, Johnson County.
