Notes regarding Prince and Crawley in Deed Books
On a genealogy research trip to Madison, Morgan Co, GA in the spring of 2010 a number of old records relating to the Prince family were found in the archives building beside the courthouse. I found a map showing where Daniel & Sarah's house was. I am almost certain I know where they are buried, at least the cemetery, but not the specific spot there (unmarked). A survey of the property prepared in 1869 is located at the bottom of this page.
