Glad to see MY cousins out and about. I would like to point out some corrections
and thoughts though.
1. Linna has not been proven to be a Lott. That is just an educated guess based
on the middle name of her son Elisha Lott Carnes. Her surname has been passed
around as Lott for some time, but - so far as I know - it has not been proven.
The oldest son appears to be Garrison and that could possibly be her surname. I
thought for a while that it might be Redwine, based on my ancestor's middle name.
I now suspect that he was named after William Redwine, a prominent Methodist
Preacher of Franklin and Hart Counties, GA.
2. Felix Carnes is the son of William Redwine Carnes, not his son, Jasper. I
expect that got on the wrong line accidentally.
I'm from Wm. Redwine Carnes' son, Wm. Franklin Carnes.
