Eugenia T. Fagan, of LaGrange, Ga.

Am researching ancestors of Manuel Eugene Stevens, Born Augusta, Ga. He was born 11-01-1864.His father was Llewellyn Thomas Stevens, who came from South Carolina.A John Stevens, came to Ga. and was in on the first land grants.I am trying to connect these, as according to family verbal history, they are connected.
I am also researching Manuel Eugene's second wife, my grandmother.Her father was John Allen Durham who was born in Nashville, Tenn. in 1870.HIS father, I believe was Henry Durham.It is told that two Durham brothers came from Durham, England, into Tennessee.One stayed and the other opened up a shop with Jessie James.
Any leads to the above would certainly be appreciated, as I am very new at this.
