Mr. Raulerson's old home is still standing in the fork of Big Satilla and Little Satilla Rivers in old Wayne County near the Pierce County line. Its timbers were hewn out of original Porests, the boards and framing were sawn by hand and the brick were homemade, all work being done by skilled slaves which he owned. It was the first frame house built in that part of the county, and was 21/2 stories high, facing the bend in the Big Satilla River. Mr. Raulerson operated a ferry across the river.

Russell Raulerson resided for some years in Ware County and in the 584th militia district, now Pierce County, but about 1845 moved to Wayne County, not far from his former home. He served as Representative from Wayne County 1851-52, and as a justice of Wayne Inferior Court, 1854-1861. He and his wives were buried in the Raulerson Cemetery in Pierce County.

Census Refs: 1840, Ware; 1850, 1860, Wayne.
