The James Miller 1780-1828 and Adenia Mayson Miller cemetery stands on a hill surrounded by a cedar grove, dividing Banks and Franklin County, Georgia, two miles south of Stephens County and Currahee Mountain, according to cousin Charles Miller, a genealogist known as the Bonedigger. Daughter Mary Polly Miller and her husband George Kesler later owned the land and had a store nearby. Also buried in the cemetery is Judge Richard L. Hooper, a sergeant in the Revolutionary war, the second husband of Adenia. Thanks to cousin Larry Whitfield and his wife Evie Wilson Whitfield, the cemetery is marked for generations to come. Thanks to cousin Frances Segars Hemphill and her husband Frank for showing me the cemetery a few years back, overgrown by vegetation but containing some stone markers. Another daughter of James and Adenia Mayson was Lavinia Emeline Miller, wife of Major William Terrell Martin, who fought in the Creek and Seminole Wars, and later served as a judge in Banks and Jackson County. Adenia was the Grandaughter of Col. James Mayson of Ninety-Six, South Carolina who attacked and captured Star Fort from the British in 1775.
