HOOTEN FAMILY (aka THE ROCK) CEMETERY, Henry County, GA

Submitted:12/19/01

Compiled and submitted to the UsGenWeb Archives by: Linda S. Sanders sigler-sanders@@mailcity.com

Introduction:

This cemetery is located in Land Lot 147 of the 8th District, Henry County, GA. From I75 South, take exit 218. Go East on GA Hwy. 81, through McDonough and approximately 8 miles beyond. Cemetery is on the right, just past McClained Drive, about 800 feet from the highway across a pasture. An old rock wall surrounds it.

A bronze plaque located at the entrance states: "James Hooten born 4/14/1790 and wife Susannah Kidd born 1798 came to this area in the early 1800’s from S. Carolina. On 1/11/1838 James Hooten deeded this property for the sum of $1.00 to the trustees of the Ola Presbyterian Chuirch for the purpose of a cemetery. James is buried in the big mound just inside the gateway of the cemetery. Susannah is buried next to him and most of the graves in the cemetery are of his children and their families. James died on 10/28/1863. Susannah died in 1869. We hope that you will enjoy your visit to the cemetery and we prayerfully request that you help us honor the dead who are buried here. They are our ancestors."

History of those buried here as follows: James Hooten (son of Littleton Hooten?) married Susannah Kidd (daughter of Moses and Cary Powers Kidd). Their children/family buried here:

Moses Hooten, who married (1st) Nancy A. Hunt (daughter of John Singleton & Mary Gaines Hunt).

Frances Anderson Brown Hooten (wife of William A. Hooten), her parents William & Margarette Walkup Brown (daughter of Cpt. James Walkup & Margaret Pickens), their son James Says Hooten, and her sister Nancy Jane Brown Grant* (wife of Benjamin Grant). Would the Grant children be part of Nancy’s family?

Nancy Walkup Crockett* (widow of William Crockett, sister of Margarette Walkup), Melissa McClendon Crockett (wife of James Walkup Crockett (Nancy’s son)), and their infant.

Margaret Walkup Hooten* (daughter of Frances Anderson Brown & William Hooten). Of interest is the fact that records show that Margaret Walkup Hooten married Henry G. DeLamar. Supposedly they only had one child named Fanny (1856-1933). Based on the dates and inscription of Wiley DeLamer’s headstone, could he be their son?

No readily available information was available to connect the Lancaster or Morgan individuals to this family. In the event that it does become available, information will be revised.

• According to records, buried here; however, no headstone found. There are several fieldstone

markers, which may be theirs.
