Note: Thomas served during the Revolutionary War in Roebucks, S.Carolina Regiment mustered around Newberry Co. in old 96 district in the western frontier of the state. He was granted about 300 acres (in 2 sections) for his service. He sold the tracts for 160 pounds sterling and moved to Georgia in 1787. He bought 181 acres of oak and hickory land on Powells Creek on Nov.13 1788 that later became Taliferro Co.(created out of territory of the original Co. of Greene in 1825). Tom acquired an additional 200 acres in July of 1792 ajoining his original tract. He transfered title to 650 acres in Jackson Co. to his oldest son Zadock Bonner in Dec. 1801.
The Bonners setteled in a Military reservation in the southern part that was set up between the Oconee and Appalachee Rivers. The appalachee River marked the boundry for white settlements with the Creek Indians living on the other side of the river. The Indians frequently crossed the river, ran off the Cattle, burned houses aand raided the countryside which reached its height from 1786 to 1788 a was termed the (Oconee War). There is no doubt that Tom was busy defending his family and fighting the Indians.The Dukes and Vanderfords were neighbors having accompanied the Bonners from N.Carolina to Greene Co. and then to Clarke Co.
