| Publisher Description: By: Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., & Robert S. Davis, Jr. Editors, Pub. 1979, Reprinted 2014, 366 pages, Index, ISBN #0-89308-156-6. This book is a compilation of the loose petitions, oaths, letters, and other papers of the winners in Georgia's seven Land Lotteries. These winners and/or their heirs are NOT included in ANY of the other Land Lottery Books. These loose papers were omitted from the other land lottery books as their whereabouts were unknown when they were being compiled. These records were shoved into a box as single pages of old loose papers in the basement of the archives. This volume contains information on more than 3,000 individuals. |
