My family is mentioned in Foxfire 5. Old Hans Jacob raised 14 kids in those mountains. My direct ancestor, his son Benjamin, came to the South Georgia coast in 1798 and we became saltwater hillbillies!

The family that founded Hubbard Hardware in Jacksonville owned a coastal trading sloop, THE TWO SISTERS, ran up and down the coast and as far South as Jamaica. Benjamin worked with them out of St. Mary's Georgia.

All of the first American generation males were tool users, none, that I know of, were horse thieves, LOL
