Founded in 1962 by Mary Bondurant Warren, Heritage Papers has published over
200 titles of genealogical interest over the past 43 years. She was presented with the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award by the Georgia Historical Records Advisory Board (GHRAB) of the Georgia Department of Archives and History in October 2010.
Perhaps the best known publication is FAMILY PUZZLERS, the nation's only
weekly genealogical magazine, which was edited by Mrs. Warren from 1964 until
1997. It was continued as FAMILY PUZZLERS, TNG, a monthly magazine, by her
daughter Amy Warren Sanders from July 1998 until June 2000. See the Family
Puzzlers link to the left for more information on bound annual volumes of
Family Puzzlers and annual surname indexes.

FREE 1829 Georgia Map by email attachment
This map shows clearly the part of Georgia that was home of the Lower Tribe of the Creek Indians on the western border of the state, as well as the Cherokee Nation in the northwest corner - the very area where gold had just been discovered! By 1839, the Cherokees were pushed off their lands and many were moved to Oklahoma Territory on the Trail of Tears. The Creeks also lost their tribal lands by treaty.
As you can see, Georgia had 54 counties in 1829 - there are now 159 counties. It helps to know how the boundaries have changed over the years!
