Good morning Cleatress,
Here is a list of potential aunts and uncles. Your father in line #2. They have parents named James Cheek & Marie Powell. They were all born in or near your father's birthplace. Are any of these people his siblings? If so, they may be able to help you with additional family information.
Best regards,

Hello there Cleatrice -- I searched my Cheek database and came up with
over 50 Eugene (middle name?) Cheek men, but none the son of a James
A(llen) Cheek. Can you tell me if your father had any siblings, and if
so, their names and approx birthdates -- Also, do you know when/where
your Cheek grandparents may have passed away? Thanks and best wishes,
Jeffrey L. Williams

Thank you very much Terry, this truly helps. With my Grandma dying when my dad was an infant, I know very little about the Cheek side of the family. I know Aunt Vestal and Uncle Jess ended up in Barstow California. I don't Recall When Aunt Vestal died, my parent's still hear from Aunt Vestal's daughter Julia. At some point Lillie remarried a McDaniels.
Thank you again.

Hello Ms. Allen,
My book does cover the Cheek family in these states. There is quite a lot on the Laurens, SC group, and Georgia is only second to NC in terms over Cheek family concentration. Feel free to email me directly at CheekChronicles(a)aol.com for more information on The Cheek Family Chronicles book.
Best wishes, Jeff Williams (author).

thank you so much for clearing that up for me. my 4ggm was sally cheek from laurens, sc and in tracing her line, i came across a silas in butts co, ga in the 1820s...since he was involved with my 4ggf per the old land deeds, i was most curious about that reference. eighty bucks is certainly more doable in terms of adding to the reference library. do you know by chance if the book covers the cheek family in sc & ga in the 1800s? thanks again. deb allen

This tome is invaluable, if your surname is CHEEK, however $350 is a bit steep.
Jeffrey Lewis Williams' book "The Cheek Family Chronicles" is available for $79.95 plus $7.00 (Domestic S&H) from:
http://cheekfamilychronicles.homestead.com/CheekFamilyChronicles.html
Silas E. Cheek was born 1854 in Burkesville, Cumberland, KY, was a real estate loan agent and a defaulter in Clinton, MO in 1885.

hey guys...reading this thread with interest as i am also a cheek descendant, with roots in ga. in the early 1800s. i live in habersham ga today so i know there are still many families here and in surrounding counties with the surname. my question relates to an earlier frances cheek, and i'm wondering if in your research you might have come across her. she married britain adams in butts co, ga in the late 1820s. i can find his name referenced twice more with minimal info, and i'm interested in both families. there was also a silas cheek in the early butts co. deeds and census records, and i do think it's the family that goes to mississippi. silas' uncle i believe was wm. cheek, a vet of the war of 1812 who also relocated to the same part of central ga. right on the edge of the indian frontier after the war. my 4 ggf served with wm. cheek and married his sister, sally. does this ring any bells with anyone out there? i've got some good lineage info but can't find fran!
ces married to britain? any clues? thanks in advance. d.a.
