Douglas/Douglass and Yates I am researching these surnames. I found what I believe to be my g-g-g-frandfather Seaborn Douglass, who was on the 1820 Emanuel County, GA census. He was right by Burrell Yates. I also found a land record in Appling County, GA that was Seaborn Douglass' and Burrell Yates witness it. They both own land in Appling County right by each other. Also they were together in Hamilton County, FL in 1830. Served together in the same militia unit in the Florida Indian war between 1836 and 1840. Seaborn's son Burrell Douglass was my g-g-grandfather. Does anyone know how Seaborn Douglass and Burrell Yates are connected with each other. Submitted by David Douglas
