For the granddaughters of Joseph Ellis Dunagan and Lucinda Beall Dunagan: I finally succeeded in establishing Frederick Dunagan as the father of Lucinda. The DAR genealogist was not the smartest cookie on the block so it took an exhaustive year to prove the parentage. We finally appealed and the head genealogist accepted it with no hitches. It is now official. So all of you that have been waiting patiently with me, now is the time to get your documents together. Sending them to the Longstreet Chapter here in Gainesville will be the quickest way to get your national number. You will use my national number to get in so you will not have any difficulties. You can then transfer to any chapter of your choosing.

As was stated in “Following Joseph”, we know that Joseph Dunagan (1740-1808) came into Georgia in or around 1790 and settled in Georgia’s original Franklin County. His land was near the Curahee Mountain on the upper North Fork of the Broad River. Posted is a map showing the location of Joseph Dunagan’s land. It is referred to as Donnegan’s Station on the map. Also posted is a letter from the settler’s to the Governor, notice that Joseph’s signature shows that he spelled his name as Dunagin. You will also see documents referring to the building of a blockade on Donnagan’s Plantation and general orders given to build the blockade. Also note on the map that Donnegan’s Station was located ten miles from Fort Mathews and 2 miles from Wofford’s Settlement.
