John Motes of Georgia
There are many John Motes!
My ggg grandparents were Margaret (?) and John Motes. They moved from Camden County, GA in the late 1820's to Nassau County, FL. Zachariah Motes was a brother and lived with them until he moved to Putnam County, Fl.John and Margaret had 5 sons: William, Henry, George, Lewis, and John (my gg grandfather). John married Rachel Wilkinson & came to Hollister, Putnam County, Fl in the mid 1850's with his brother, Henry, and his uncle, Zachariah. They had 10 children: Melinda, George (my g grandfather), Margaret, Elijah, Nancy, Susan, John L., Henry, Elizabeth, & Lewis.John and Rachel are buried in the Hollister Cemetery. If anyone can connect our John with their family, I would appreciate hearing from you.
So many of the records were burned during the Civil War and it is difficult to research the early years of the colonies.
