Descendants of John Wilkinson (ca. 1730-1806), a planter, who died in Wilkes Co., Georgia. He was probably born in Virginia. The earliest known records of him were deed records of Lunenburg (later Mecklenburg) County, Virginia in the late 1750s. He may have been a son of Francis and Mary Wilkinson born in Kent Co., Va. He had at least thirteen children. Includes the descendants of David Wilkerson/Wilkinson (b. bef. 1740, d. 1819), possibly a brother or at least a relative of John Wilkinson. He died in Granville Co., N.C. Family members and descendants live in Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, Texas and elsewhere.

"Counties covered include all of those formed before 1790, i.e. Burke, Camden, Chatham, Effingham, Franklin, Glynn, Greene, Liberty, Richmond, Washington, and Wilkes. Also covered are Columbia and Elbert counties, which were formed just after the census was taken. Information in the text is purposely sparse, the compilers' object being simply to identify individuals in at least one record of a county at a particular time. When the original edition of this work was published in 1976, it had no index. Our reprint contains a complete name index with thousands of multiple references" -- publisher website (June 2008).

Journals and letters, translated from the original French, bring Michaux’s work to modern readers and scientists Known to today’s biologists primarily as the “Michx,” at the end of more than 700 plant names, André Michaux was an intrepid French naturalist. Under the directive of King Louis XVI, he was commissioned to search out and grow new, rare, and never-before-described plant species and ship them back to his homeland in order to improve French forestry, agriculture, and horticulture. He made major botanical discoveries and published them in his two landmark books, Histoire des chênes de l’Amérique (1801), a compendium of all oak species recognized from eastern North America, and Flora Boreali-Americana (1803), the first account of all plants known in eastern North America. Straddling the fields of documentary editing, history of the early republic, history of science, botany, and American studies, André Michaux in North America: Journals and Letters, 1785–1797 is the first complete English edition of Michaux’s American journals. This copiously annotated translation includes important excerpts from his little-known correspondence as well as a substantial introduction situating Michaux and his work in the larger scientific context of the day. To carry out his mission, Michaux traveled from the Bahamas to Hudson Bay and west to the Mississippi River on nine separate journeys, all indicated on a finely rendered, color-coded map in this volume. His writings detail the many hardships—debilitating disease, robberies, dangerous wild animals, even shipwreck—that Michaux endured on the North American frontier and on his return home. But they also convey the soaring joys of exploration in a new world where nature still reigned supreme, a paradise of plants never before known to Western science. The thrill of discovery drove Michaux ever onward, even ultimately to his untimely death in 1802 on the remote island of Madagascar.
