    Hello Rhonda! That is both amazing sad! The challenges our Ancestors faced, huh? Did your GG Grandfather get to keep his 40 acres?

    Let's hope your LCA Root-Digging will be successful. Also connect with Toni Carrier here at GenealogyWise. She heads-up the LCA initiative & may know of additional resources to aid your search.

    Wow! Even though your Grand didn't get to maintain his land, it must be pretty phenomenal to see his and other relatives on the Freedmen's document.

    I have always scoured those records in hopes of my any mention of my Ancestors.

    That is phenomenal. I often wonder what would I be able to learn about my 4th Grandfather, James Wingfield, had he lived well beyond emancipation. Unfortunately, he was lynched in 1885 in Wilkes Co. GA.

    Those records are a blessing. Glad I could contribute!:-)
