It appears that Lewis H Fargason settled in Tallapoosa Co., Ala. sometimes
prior to 1839, being the first of the Henry Co., Ga. Fargasons to come
to
Alabama. The 1850 Tallapoosa County Slave Cemsus indicates that Lewis
had four
slaves: 1 female (B) age 25; 1 male (B) age 16; 1 female (M) age 3;
and one
male (M) age 60. Lewis was later joined by his sister Hannah
and her husband
Memory McMullen and later his brother, John Fargason. Lewis served
as Justice
of the Peace in Henry County in 1826 and again in 1828.
