The Heritage of Union County
THROUGH MOUNTAIN MISTS - Early Settlers of Union County, Georgia by Ethelene Dyer Jones (c. Ethelene Dyer Jones) available on this Web site. Mountain Mists' articles are currently being added, please check back.
Mr. Ira Harkins, who, if not officially the historian of the Canada/Suches area of Union County, should be declared so. I am grateful to him and his articles in “The Heritage of Union County” for information about early post offices in that section “across the mountains” from the county seat of Blairsville. - Ethelene Jones
