District G -- This area included: The town of Amity, Leath erville, Lloyds Creek, Dozier Creek, Gray's Creek in the so uthwest corner of what is now Lincoln County.

District GG -- This area is now in the eastern part of Gree ne County near the border with what remains to be Wilkes Co unty.

District H -- This area included: Uptons Creek and Keemp s Creek in what is now the southeast corner of Wilkes Count y. "The tax returns for this district for 1790 have not b een found, ...." except for seven defaulters. "Except fo r these few defaulters, all persons included in this censu s as residents of this district are noted as being in 178 7 or 1791 or both."

Note A - The tax returns for the district in which this tax payer probably resided in 1790 are missing, so there is n o tax record to show that he actually was a resident. Howe ver, the taxpayer is recorded for both the indicated distri ct or the 1787 district from which the indicated district w as made, and for the indicated district in 1791 or a distri ct made therefrom. Therefore, there is an almost certain p robability the taxpayer did reside in the indicated
district in 1790.

Note C - The tax returns for the district in which this tax payer probably resided in 1790 are missing, so there is n o tax record to show that he actually was there. However , this taxpayer is recorded for 1791 in the indicated
district or a district made therefrom. Therefore, there i s a very good probability the taxpayer did reside in the in dicated district in 1790.

* See note C above for WIlliam BENTLEY Jr. This land was lo cated on Upton's Creek and Keemps Creek in what continues t o be (Southeastern) Wilkes County, Georgia today. Upton' s Creek is where Upton Creek Baptist Church was constitute d in 1784, with Peter SMITH as Pastor (Charter Member of th e Georgia Baptist Association. He was also a co-executor o f William BENTLEY Sr's will dated 26th of Feb. 1791) John B ENTLEY was a Deacon of this church in 1785 along with Bened ict HAMMOCK. Gideon ANSERSON donated a total of 2 acres fo r the meetinghouse to the Deacons of the church; John BENTL EY and Benedict HAMMOCK. In 1791, John HOLMES, husband o f Chloe BENTLEY, daughter of William BENTLEY Sr., was ordai ned a Minister. William GREEN was ordained a Minister her e in 1791 as well. This Church was finally moved to Lincol n County, Georgia (in the southwestern corner of the count y almost touching the county line with Wilkes County) in 18 12 and the name was changed to Greenwood Baptist Church.

"Early Settlers of the name Hammock in the Wilkes County (G eorgia) Land Grants were probably the sons of Robert and An n Hammock of Farnham Parish (Richmond County) register.

John, born 1730; Hugh, born 1732; Robert, born 1737, and Be nedict 1740, all were suitable pioneering age. Only one, J ohn Hammock, lived beyond his "three score and ten."

The conclusion the Benedict Hammock was one of the group o f brothers is logical, but he was possibly the son of Bened ict, Sr., of Amelia County deeds. He was certainly closel y related, if not a brother. John, Hugh, Benedict, Robert , and William Hammock were all early settlers of Wilkes Cou nty, Georgia."

Peter SMIT H, Mark SANDERS, Testators. (Volume 1, page 236.)

*GREENWOOD CHURCH was first established, 1784, in East Wilk es County under the name of "Upton Creek Church, " and is s upposed to have been an arm of old Keokee, first Baptist ch urch in Georgia. After a few years it was moved further ea st, though still in Wilkes County, and its name changed t o "Greenwood". This was about 1791. In 1820 it was moved a gain to its present location just over in Lincoln County . Old records do not give names of any of the old heads ex cept the pastors.

"If you remember, Upton Creek, the first name of Greenwoo d church, has more real historic connections than any plac e in Georgia. It was on this creek that the first water po wer, or any kind of power, was started in 1790. In 1791 El i WHITNEY bought the old mill dam and wheel, built his sho p and invented the cotten gin (this in not the spot where h e invented the cotten gin, but he did use this place to hel p perfect it) and ginned the first bale of cotten in the Un ited States.

"In 1810, the first cotton factory south of Massachusetts w as built there and the old rock pile is still there, wher e the old house fell down. On this creek the rich Jew, Abr am SIMONS, whose money founded Mercer University, lived. H is widow married Jesse MERCER." -- Letter of J. Luke Burdet t, Washington, Georgia, March 22, 1935.
