Does anyone have any info on Ephraim, son of Jeremiah Castleberry, who died
about 1827, probably in Newton Co., GA?
Ephraim was born 26 Apr 1795, married Louisa (Lucy) Marshall on May 2, 1817
in Putnam Co. I'm trying to find some verification of the date he died. As
far as I can find, he was living in Newton Co. when he died.
In the 1821 Land Lottery, Ephraim won land in Dooly Co. in Jurnigan's Dist.
(Lot 151, Dist. 14). In 1824 he sold property in Habersham Co., GA, to
Abraham Anderson of Baldwin Co. The deed showed Ephraim Castlebury "of
Newton Co." (DB D, p. 11).
In the 1827 Land Lottery, Register No. 4, 9th Day Drawing, Newton Co., Louisa
Castleberry, widow (Capt. Hays' Dist.) drew land lot 176, 2nd Dist., Section
3.
Lucy Marshall Castleberry m. 2) Joseph Mason on Feb. 3, 1831 in Putnam Co.,
GA.
Joseph Mason must have died before 1850, since Lucy is shown in the 1850
census with her son, Jefferson J. Castleberry, dau. Mary E. Mason age 16, and
son Joseph Mason age 14.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
