Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home of the first prehistoric pottery made in North America, Columbia County is one of the first counties in Georgia and one of the most rapidly growing areas in the state. From the tumultuous years of the Civil War to the 20th century, its history is recorded in these vintage photographs. The images within these pages--many never before seen by the public--include early pioneers who were instrumental in the founding of the county, as well as several ambrotypes of Confederate soldiers. The history of the county's education system, one of the state's best, is traced with snapshots of old field schools and village schoolhouses. Its industry is revealed, from locally-owned lumberyards to the famous Lake Thurmond Dam, which created the largest recreation facility in a five-county area. Culled from individuals, family collections, and county organizations, these pictures are treasured items offered for public perusal. An engaging retrospective, Columbia County offers something for everyone, from the history buff to the nostalgia seeker to the leisurely reader.

Book excerpt: What began with Barbara Seaborn as a thumbnail sketch of Columbia County, Georgia, from 1750 to the twenty-first century, soon evolved into a more detailed but select account of the people and events in the county's history, beginning with the first known inhabitants circa 4,000 B.C., to the end of the nineteenth century, with an overview of the more recent years. The more she learned and the more she realized how quickly history in general is fading from our lives, the project acquired another purpose--to show how Columbia County history was related to what was going on in the region and around the world at the same time. This is more than a county story, much less that of just one Georgia county. Columbia County's settling and settlers, challenges and achievements, are but a microcosm of all settlements, a part of the fabric of all places and the people who migrated here. It is also a specific story with outstanding players, including an abundance of state and national leaders, Georgia's only (two) signers of the U.S. Constitution, and the founders and first presidents of all three major universities in the state: Emory, Mercer, and the University of Georgia. Columbia County: born of revolution, deliberation, and grit; developed in sacrifice, conflict, and toil; sustained by knowledge, diligence, and faith. Like those who showed early settlers the way, may those who dwell here today deliver this flourishing, one-fledgling settlement in the Backcountry of Georgia to those who continue to migrate here for as long as the rivers run. --From dust jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author began a journey searching family history in Columbia County, Georgia, and made a startling discovery within the Dozier story, which remained hidden for generations. The ghosts of Rosehill Plantation, in the Cobbham Community in modern Appling, Georgia, whispered tales of cotton and of hardworking strong-willed people. Their lives and spiritual conflicts in times long forgotten is a story about the South, about what it means to be family, and about devotion to each other. In the vein of the images and emotions of Margaret Mitchell's Gone With The Wind, this book is a real life story about a family on both sides of the Civil War, through slavery, emancipation, freedom, reconstruction and reconciliation. These pages show photos and portraits of real characters and reads almost like historical fiction, but all of it is true - and validated in the U. S. Census records from 1860 - 1910. How the Dozier, Sturgis and Bugg families survived and thrived in these times is remarkable. How their names were sewn within the textile of King Cotton is a story that must be told. How their names were introduced and retained by slaves and descendants of slaves is remarkable in and of itself, but revealed is the name of the Last Freedman of Georgia, how he came to Columbia County and who granted his freedom through manumission. The Big House on Rosehill Plantation was like a face brightened by the sun, who witnessed the laughter, tears and faith of generations. A crown jewel of a plantation home, one you must read about and see.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local histories and genealogical records are fascinating and are a valuable tool for anyone tracing their roots. The records compiled in this book are especially important to those researching their African-American heritage, those with ancestors who moved from Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, as well as other counties in Georgia. Keep in mind, if your ancestor fought in the Revolutionary War, he may have moved to Georgia in order to participate in the many land grants and lotteries. There were also thousands of Quakers who lived here.Records in this collection include marriage records, deeds, and wills, as well as some miscellaneous records - over 3,000 in al, covering the years 1770-1820.As a genealogist researching her family for over 25 years, I "just knew" that one of my lines lived and died in Pennsylvania. It was quite a surprise when I found that line right here in Columbia County! So, keep an open mind, keep researching and learning. Remember, those brick walls we all experience may be broken just by reading this book. Good Luck!!!
