Thank you!! I am just getting started in my family research and this is very helpful! How are Benjamin Davis and Elizabeth Davis parents of Benjamin C. Ganas? Please also tell me where you found the information. I also need to find proof that Newton Mack Ganas was a Prisoner of War during the Civil War, held in a prison near Savannah, GA. Any suggestions?
