In the Georgia Journal, Madison, Georgia, August 25, 1831. you find mention of the town of Sanfordsville in Gwinnett County which makes me think of a Sand Ford for crossing the river. The question is where was Sandfordsville. In the Southern Banner, Aug. 11, 1838 you see The list from the Southern Banner, Aug. 11, 1838 points to a stop on the stage from Lawrenceville. Pickneyville is in Forsyth County, Marshalltown (1838-1841) is also in Forsyth County, Lebanon, Georgia is a Cherokee County community that is now absorbed into Holly Springs. While the community is locally known and still referred to as Toonigh. At any rate their may have been two Sandfordsville's but not sure one in Cass and the other in Gwinnett but the article mentions the town in 1831 before the Cherokee Land lottery so boundaries may be different from today. Any idea?
