http://Green Cemetery Notes

This information pertains to the Poe that settled in Habersham Co, GA and then onto Benton / Calhoun (and Talledega) Counties in Alabama. Some records show Poe bured in Green Cemetery. Connected to this family is Edmond/Edmund Poe and Stephen Poe (see Wilkes County, NC and Georgia records)

Research is ongoing, but this group appears connected to Surry / Wilkes / Ashe County, North Carolina. Below the notes I have pertinent links for those analyzing these families.

Sarah Parker POE 80y 1848

THIS PROVIDES A BIRTH DATE OF 1762. Most charts show Sarah married at 15 not 26. This effects the age presumed for husband Edmond Poe, and who his father could have been.

Stephen Poe (1759 - 28 July 1843)
