Lake Russell Wildlife Management Area Cemeteries surveyed
Oct 5th 2005 By J.C. & son Mike Southerland. Names listed
from iterance, row by row all the way to the rear. The
cemetery is  between Tower Mt. & Currahee Mt. In Habersham
Co., Ga., east of the Southern R.R. 

This is some of the first settler who settled in N. E.
Georgia. I don't remember when the Government bought the
land and made the settlers move out. 

I took multiple pictures of some, trying to figure out the
dates. Can send pictures separate if you want..
J.C.
