Hello,
A Martha Rollins who was a widow received land in the 1821 Georgia land lottery. she lived in Jasper co Ga which had been Randolph co Ga until the name was changed to Jasper co Ga. She lived in Jasper co Ga but the land she won was in Henry co Ga. I do not know what martha Rollin's maiden name was or who she married. David Smith bought the land. I assume he bought it from Martha Rollins because although the land she won was in Henry co Ga the area where the land was located was in Newton co Ga when it was formed in the last part of 1821. Would you have any information about a Martha Rollins living in Jasper co Ga in 1821 and probably later. I do not know when David Smith bought the land from her if he did by it from her. I know he bought the land. I ordered the film for Newton co ga deeds but the deed was not listed. Maybe it is in Henry co Ga deeds. Any information appreciated. Ross
