President's Message
July 2003
What will happen to your research records
A couple of things happened recently that made me think we family historians should
give some serious thought about what will happen to our research notes and records
when we are no longer able to pursue our hobby.
The first was an article in a genealogy magazine by a welLknown author. She had
been called by the family of a very good friend (also a genealogist) to help sort through
her friend's records. Even as a professional genealogist, her records were not in
pristine order and no directions had been gjven as to their disposition.
The second was a box (which we found as we were cleaning out a corner in the Special
Collections room of the Neva Lomason Library) of handwritten notes, family group
sheets, copies of wills, a dozen or so notebooks also with page after page of notes
taken from court house records and census records. Obviously, this person had
intended to write a book as she had already made a rough outline. Her untimely death
changed all that Someone eventually put together a short history of her family and
gave the box of loose papers to the Library I do not know how long the box had been
sitting in that corner but I brought it home with me a few weeks ago, thinking I could
sort through it quickly and put the pertinent information in our family files.
It wasn't that easy. So far, I have made four cuts through all the loose papers and they
still need more work We are unsure what to do with the dozen wire-bound notebooks
with her handwritten notes.
So, back to my original question. What will happen to your research records Are they
in proper order (Let's make that'teasonably good order.") Have you asked your local
library lF they want them Remember, if you choose to let your family "give them to the
library," they may sit in a corner for years until someone finally has the time to look at
them.
As I look at the forty-eight three-ring binders sitting on my bookshelves, I ask myself the
same question - What will happen to my research So far, I have no answer to that
question. I like to think that I have plenty of time to figure out an answer but there's
always that "untimely" aspect.....
This wasn't meant to be a morbid letter; it's just something that I have thought about
recently- lf you have made plans for the disposition of your research, tell us about it. lt
may help someone else.

THE MYSTERY OF TURKEY CREEK'S MISSING PAGES
by Betty Jo Parsons
Turkey Creek District is an area around Mt. Zion, a small community here in Carroll
County. Now that may not mean much to many of you, but what we have found
missing from our old Carroll County Tax Digest books should be of grave concem to all
genealogists who depend on their local library foI resources.
About a year ago, the Neva Lomason Library had many of the old Tax Digests
rebound. They were in quite bad shape and some profits garnercdlrcmlhe Heitage of
Caroll County book sales were used to help pay for this project. This was a big step in
helping to preserve more of our county records and those who worked on the Herlage
book were proud to be a part of this.
Some members of the Genealogical Society have also been doing some "spring
housecleaning" in the Special Collections room. lt's fun to look in niches and cranntes
and old boxes to see what has been hidden away for much too long. Butwhatwe
found was anything but fun and games. We uncovered a box full of more Tax Digests
and some odd pages. Upon closer examination we found that many of these pages
had been tom or cut (yes, that's right .- ,pped out or cul with a sharp object) from the
large Tax Digests books. Theywere allfrom the Turkey Creek District. Obviously,
these pages had been removed from the Library, used for heaven only knows what
purpose, and retumed. Each name on each page had been checked off with a ballpoint
pen, and then the pages were stapled back together.
Needless to say, we and the library staff were not only outraged at this act, but were
equally saddened that someone could mutilate ineplaceable records. Afterall,thatis
what much of our family research is all about - preserving our heritage.

-76-
The Mystery of Turkey Creek's l\rissing Pages, Cont'd.
After randomly checking more volumes of the other newly-bound Tax Digests, we found
several mo.e books where the pages had been cut out - allfrom Turkey Creek.
So you see, Turkey Creek has a problem. Many of its old tax records are missrng now.
lf any of you have ever transcribed any of Turkey Creek's records, we need your help in
replacing the information from these missing pages. You may contact me at the Carroll
County Genealogical Society, P.O Box576, Carrollton, GA30112, ore-mail meat
bJparsons@aol com.
lreanwhile, if you ever see someone mutilating library materials, I hope you will
immediately report them to the director of your library.

THE SAND HILL COMIVIUNITY
the former countv seat "Old Carrollton"
by Douglas C. Mabry
The Sand Hill Community has a very rich and important past, not only jn regards to
Carroll County history but it is significant to the history of the Georgia frontier.
Canoll County was organized in December of '1826, out of the last Creek lndian
land added by the state in the Treaty of 1825. The settlers in this new county first met in a
log cabin near Mclntosh Reserve and decided the county seat would be most centrally
located in the southeast corner of land lot number 114 of the 5th district. (The original
Canoll County covered present day Carroll, Douglas, Heard, Troop and Haralson counties).
"Old Ca.rollton was established a few hundred yards southwest of the present day Sand
Hill old l\rasonic lodge.
The first Carroll lnferiorCourt convened May31, 1827. This marked the first official
government meeting west of the Chattahoochee River in Georgia.
Sand HilUOld Carollton was the site of the first county seat in this last section of the
Georgia frontier. The first courthouse was where the current "old" Carrollton Primitive
Baptist Church is now. This courthouse was only a "Brush Arbor," as this was a common
sight in frontier days when cheap, simple cover was needed for public and religrous
meetings.
This area has had several names since 1827. Old Canollton, Five Points, Sand
Hill, and Fairplay all had legitimate name meanings. The name Sand Hill came about
because the location is a slight elevation in the center of a large territory of white sandy
loam sojl. Five Points was a common reference name afterthe first county court meeting
at which they ordered the construction of new roads so the county residents could get to
the new county seat. Ihe roads branched out to areas now known as Hulett, Villa Rica,
Carrollton, Temple and Crossplains.
Fairplay was the name of the militia district (voting district) for over the next one
hundred years plus, so named because of the good, moral, and honest character of the
people.
The name "Old" Carrollton was used once the county seat was moved to its present
location or "new' Carrollton The move was made because the eastern part of Carroll
County was cut off to form Campbell (now Douglas) County. The county seat needed to
be moved more to the center of the new boundaries of the county for equal, easy access.
The community of Sand Hill is in danger of losing its historic, rural, village-like
character to urban sprawl. This special area with significance to Georgia's frontier could
become just another paved over strip mall if urgent planning is not started. This community
and this county have retained that special, rural community-village "sense of place" for 175
years, having come through Creek lndian Wars, the Civil War, the Great Depression, and
many other threats.
