Where in Forsyth Co. would be a great place to find information on these families, such as deeds, wills, marriage info, burial info. I am planning a visit to Cumming soon and would like to spend my time on finding information. Thank you for any help on these families.

One of the best sources of Forsyth Co., GA genealogy information is Pioneer History of Forsyth Co., Ga. by Don Shadburn. Chapters 11 and 12 are devoted to the Bell, in particular, and the index shows the other ancestor names you list. We found it well worth the cost.

The Forsyth Co. Public Library has several copies of the book mentioned in an earlier response if you would like to check it out before buying.
