Descendants of James Baskin Compiled by Stephanie Lincecum - SLincecum@i-found-it.net Copyright 2005 Generation No. 1 1. REV. JAMES BASKIN was born 18 August 1800 in Abbeville, South Carolina. He married (1)HENRIETTA WILLIAMS HARRISON. She was born 1800 in South Carolina. He married (2)RHODA CHANDLER, daughter of THOMAS CHANDLER and POLLY JACKSON. She was born Abt. 1836 in Georgia. Notes for REV. JAMES BASKIN: - During the 1870 Carroll County, Georgia Federal Census, one of James's sons, a daughter-in-law, and grandson was living with him: Thomas (age 26), Harris (age 21), and Lee (age 1). - The Constitution, Atlanta, Georgia, Friday September 28, 1887 THE STORY OF A PIONEER One of the Oldest Settlers of Carroll County on the Past From the Carroll GA Times The editor of the Times had a short but very interesting conversation with Mr. Appleton Mandeville one morning last week. He is one of our oldest and best citizens and it is very interesting to hear him tell of Carrollton and Carroll County half a century ago. Mr. Mandeville came to Carrollton in 1832 and has been right here since. He has seen and rejoiced in the county's prosperity and in the darkest hour of adversity he has stood by the town and county and helped to fight the great battle. Nearly all the men who were here then are gone and a rude pen or a simple tombstone marks their resting place. We can only call to mind a very few of these old pioneers. There is Honorable W.W. Merrell, Hon. Thomas Chandler, Rev. James Baskin, Judges Eli and J.C. Benson, and Henry R. Williams - - all the rest are gone... ...The Cherokee Indians had about all left for other climes, but few and far between were the white settlements. Mr. Mandeville says in going to Villa Rica about four or five settlements were about all that were passed. There was a small settlement where Judge V.B. McClure now lives and Rev. James W. Baskin occupied his present homestead near Concord M.E. Church. He says he traveled forty miles into Alabama and only came to six or seven settlements. Carrollton and Villa Rica were the only towns in the county and and Villa Rica at that time was the metropolis. The gold fever had broken out about 1830 and that had given Villa Rica a boon which had given her the start of Carrollton. Carrollton began to grow in 1850 at about which time the old seminary was built and from that time till 1857 when the excitement of the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama railroad being built, Carrollton came up slowly...
