  • Notes 
    • William W. Hatcher Sr: <> provides the following information

      BIO:HE WAS EXECUTOR FOR HIS FATHER'S ESTATE. MENTIONED SEVERAL TIMES IN MISCELLANOUS ESTATE RECORDS OF Crawford County GA.. NO FURTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE AFTER 1880 CENSUS. THERE IS A CEMETERY LOCATED ON WHAT IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE ROWELL PLACE OFF OAK GROVE CHURCH ROAD IN THE NORTH WEST SECTION OF CRAWFORD COUNTY. SEVEN GRAVES ARE MARKED BUT NO LAST NAMES; DANIAL, MATTIE (WATTIE?), SUSIE, FATHER & E. R., MOTHER AND P.R., EMILY F. WIFE OF W.C. SMITH. FATHER & E. R. SHOULD BE EDWARD ROWELL, MOTHER & P.R. IS PROBABLY EDWARD'S WIFE PENELOPE SANDERS ROWELL SINCE THEY ARE BURIED SIDE BY SIDE.THERE ARE INDICATIONS OF OTHER GRAVES. ONE OTHER GRAVE IS MARKED WITH SMALL STONE WITH INITIALS A. W. (ADDENDUM) WHEN I FIRST VIEWED THIS CEMETERY IN ITS SAD STATE, MY REASONING FOLLOWED THAT OF THE INDIVIDUAL WHO HAD AUDITED IT SOME YEARS EARLIER. LIKE THAT INDIVIDUAL, I THOUGHT THE STONES IDENTIFYING FATHER AND MOTHER AND E.R. AND P.R. WERE SEPARATE GRAVES. AFTER CLEARING AND CLEANING THIS CEMETERY RECENTLY (SEPTEMBER 20/21 1996), I AM CONVIENCED THAT THESE STONES ARE THE HEAD AND FOOT STONES OF THE SAME GRAVES OF EDWARD AND PENELOPE SANDERS ROWELL. ALSO, WE WERE ABLE TO RETRIEVE A BROKEN PIECE OF OF WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A FOOT STONE WITH THE INITIALS A. W. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE GRAVE OF ALBERT HARRISON WELLONS WHO DIED IN THE WAR BETWEEN THE STATES. IN THE 1832 Georgia LAND LOTTERY, HE HAD A FORTUNATE DRAW AND DREW LAND LOT 185 IN THE 10TH DISTRICT, SECOND SECTION, OF THEN CHEROKEE COUNTY; NOW GILMER COUNTY. FOR THE SUM OF $18, HE COULD REGISTER HIS CLAIM WITH THE STATE AND RECIEVE A WARRANT WHICH WOULD GIVE HIM TITLE THE PROPERTY. HE WAS NOT REQUIRED TO LIVE ON OR TILL THE PROPERTY. HE COULD DO WITH IT AS HE PLEASED. I DO NOT KNOW THE DISPENSATION OF THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY. IN HIS FATHER'S WILL HE WAS TO RECIEVE 'ALL OF MY LAND LYING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BIG CREEK'. HE SURRENDERED THIS PROPERTY TO
      HIS BROTHER EDWARD IN 1871 AFTER THEIR MOTHER DIED.
      ON OCT 1, 1849, HE PURCHASED FROM JOHN BENTLEY 108 ACRES OF THE EASTERN HALF OF LAND LOT 45 IN THE SECOND DISTRICT OF CRAWFORD COUNTY FOR THE PRINCELY SUM OF $220. ON THE 6TH OF JANUARY 1874, SHERIFF A. J. PRESTON SOLD AT PUBLIC OUTCRY TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER THE SOUTH EASTERN CORNER OF LAND LOT 45 IN THE SECOND DISTRICT BY VIRTURE OF AN EXECUTION ISSUED BY THE JUSTICE COURT OF SAID COUNTY IN FAVOR OF E. BOND & CO. J. G. COLBERT WAS THE HIGHEST BIDDER AND PAID $21 FOR THE PROPERTY ON OCTOBER 8TH, 1882, JAMES W., T. E., AND E. L. ROWELL SOLD THEIR INTEREST IN THE REMAINING FIFTY ACRES TO THEIR SISTER, SARAH E. WHITTINGTON, FOR THE SUM OF $10. SINCE I HAVE NO OTHER INFORMATION ON DANIEL AFTER 1880 WHEN HE WAS LISTED AS BEING 72 YEARS OLD, I THINK IT WOULD BE SAFE TO ASSUME THAT HE DIED IN 1882.
      HE PROVIDED FOUR SONS FOR WAR BETWEEN THE STATES, ONLY TWO OF WHOM WOULD RETURN HOME; AND BOTH OF THEM SEVERLY CRIPPLED FOR LIFE.
