Hi there Patrick, Glad you are still with us!! As you may know...I had to be off line for several weeks while moving and, naturally, changing ISPs. Note my new address as: catinjax@bellsouth.net I am working on a Southern AKINS Website. Found some graphics yesterday and hope to get it up over the weekend. My personal website has also moved as I now have my own, personal space at RootsWeb: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~catinjax/ Can't wait to hear more from you....we will have space now to put some of these deeds and other records on-line if you will be so kind as to share. I also have a new computer and the all-in-one HP Printer that faxes, scans, copies & prints in color. It's my new toy..but lots to learn on how to use it...LOL Take care, CAT PATRICK GUDAITIS wrote: > Hi folks, > Just got some reels in on Charlotte Co. Wills, and Mecklenburg Deed > and Order books.
