Reader Comments ``Let me tell you something spectacular. The Quartermans have really gone after the family connection. I have still some trouble with my Bakers and another person, but they really put out a heck of a book.'' ``...the massive Quarterman family history published in 1997. This is a huge, beautiful book, with an impressive amount of information,....'' ``I now have a copy of your book and really enjoy it. It is really well done and I believe any Quarterman is missing a major part of their library without it.''

Even if you are not a Quarterman by name, you may be related anyway. Many genealogies follow a single line; this one does that, and names of people in our direct line are printed in this preface in boldface. However, this book also follows all the branches.

This book includes all known ancestors of John Quarterman Sr. (d. 1765) who is said to be buried under the oldest oak tree in Midway cemetery, his son Thomas Quarterman (b. 1738 d. 1791), and his son Rev. Robert Quarterman (b. 1787 d. 1849), the first native-born pastor of Midway Church. In addition, the book includes all known descendants of Rev. Robert's grandchildren, at least in our direct line. It also includes all known descendants of most of those Quarterman ancestors, to the present day.

Many members of the Midway community were interrelated through marriage. If some of your ancestors were from Georgia and were named Andrews, Axson, Bacon, Baker, Ball, Elliott, Graves, Hurst, Jones, LeConte, Mallard, Myddleton, Norman, Osgood, Stacy, Stevens, Sumner, Taylor, Varnedoe, Waite, Ward, Way, Winn, or Witt, you may well be related, and your relatives may be in this book. If any of your ancestors were named Quarterman and were from Liberty County, you are almost certainly related, and you are very likely in this book.
