  • Notes 


    • William AARON's life was fairly well documented for that period. He was married three times and two of those marriages are documented in Franklin County, Georgia records. William was a large land owner in Franklin County, Georgia and numerous actions of him buying and selling land are recorded in the deed transactions of the court records of Franklin County, GA.

      However, in later years, his fortunes declined, and at the time of his death he was no longer a land owner of record in Franklin County, GA, nor is there any evidence that he had accumulated any amount of cash. It was not necessary to inventory his estate at the time of his death, as no court records have been found directing an inventory of his estate. He was living with a William AARON, not identified, but presumed to be his relative at the time of his death.

      If the information is correct on wives #2 and #3, this would make William Aaron a long-lived individual with son James Aaron being born when he was 67 years old.
