Tell me if you are related. We live in North Florida - here Fortner is an odd name - but a few years ago in Germany it was like "Jones' or "Williams"
My Grandfather was George W. Fortner and my Dad is George Sidney Fortner - he remembers his own grandfather - Augustine Swain Fortner - but little is known about how we even got to North Florida.
Thank you so much.
Donna - good to meet you too - most of the information we do have is from Carl Swain who has done an extensive geneology on the Swain's - but whoever Sarah Swain Fortner's husband was is a mystery. So is the father of her children as they are listed as illigetimant.
