     This is a breakdown of my Paternal Great-Great Grandparents in the 1910 census. Also seen are my Great-Grandparents, who were young children living with their parents. You can click each image to see a larger size.

     In 1910 my Great-Great Grandparents, George Robert Craft and his wife, Effie Verona Powell, were living on Sanders-Ferry Road in Gains, Militia District 199, Elbert County, Georgia.  "Bob," as he was called, was a general farmer working rented land on his "own account." The couple had been married for 19 years and had seven children. Both could read and write. My Great Grandfather, Bennie E Craft, was a 14 year old boy living with his parents. He was attending school at this time.


In 1910 my Great-Great Grandparents, John H Evans and his wife, Leila Frances Craft, were living on an unnamed road in Gaines, Militia District 199, Elbert County, Georgia.  John was a general farmer working rented land on his "own account." The couple had been married for 12 years and had five living children (and one deceased). Both could read and write. My Great Grandmother, Sallie Ruth Evans, was an eight year old girl living with her parents. She was attending school, but whether or not she could read and write is marked through.

In 1910 my Great-Great Grandmother, Amelia Permelia Parrish, third wife and widow of William Britt, was living on Stillmore Rural Route #1, 55th District, Emanuel County, Georgia. She was living with her daughter, Rosa, and son-in-law, Damascus Hayes. Amelia had given birth to 10 children, seven of which were still living and four of whom still lived with her. Among them was my Great-Grandfather, Nathan Britt, a nine year old boy. He was attending school but they did not record if he could read or write.


In 1910 my Great-Great Grandparents, William L Barfield and his wife, Susan F Boatright, were living in the 59th District of Emanuel County, Georgia.  "Bill" was a farmer laborer, hiring out his services to others. The couple had been married for seven years and had three children, including my Great-Grandmother, Ledora Barfield was a three year old girl living with her parents.
