Daniel McCollum of Habersham County, Georgia
Posted October 10th, 2009 by ageelynn
I am researching Daniel McCollum of Habersham County, Georgia. He married a woman named Olive. Their daughter Jane married Daniel Wilburn Jones. Other children include Sarah, Lucinda D., Marietta, and Candis R. Sarah married John Taylor; Lucinda married Solomon White, Candis married Richard Ratliff. They all wound up in Texas, except for Jane, who lived in Tishomingo County, Mississippi, and in Colbert County, Alabama. Daniel McCollum was from Pendleton District, South Carolina. He evidently folowed the discovery of gold: in Habersham County, Georgia, and in Mariposa County, California. He was related to, maybe a first cousin of, Joab McCollum of Habersham county.

Daniel McCollum of Habersham County, Georgia
I've done extensive research on the McCollums of Pendleton South Carolina who moved to Habersham County, Georgia in the 1820s, but this Daniel and his family are not famiiar to me. Daniel born in 1760 in New Jersey move to Habersham in February 1826. His son, Willim born in 1789 had a son Daniel Harrison McCollum born in 1813. Daniel Harrison and his descendants reamined in this area for several generations. I also have traced Joab Lafayette McCollum's line from SC across north Georgia and to Arkansas and have no Daniel in that line. If you have more information about your Daniel, such as a birth date, let me know and I'll see if he fits into my line. Wally McCollum
