Nela, Check out the Clarke Co., GA. Poor School Records (1823-1837. Listed there was the following:
Rueben (Reuben) Meadows |
Theophilus Meadows|Children of William Meadows.
Anna Meadows.|
My GGG GF, David Stephens, was the Supervisor of the Poor School.. David died in the spring of 1837.
Reuben was the # 2 child of William and Lizzie.
Theophilus L. was the #4 child.
Anna (Ann) was the # 6 child.
My Meadows ancestor was Reuben R. Meadows.They were listed as Meadows until the moved to Coweta County, GA. after 1830 (when they were enumerated in the 1830 census of Clarke Co., GA. and before 1840 when they were enumerated in the Coweta Co., GA. census.
The Records Keepers changed the spelling of their name from Meadows to Medders. Some of the Meadows kin in Texas have changed the spelling back to the original Meadows. (These are from my line, Reuben R. Medders).
