This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Baxter Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CkC.2ACIB/1385.1 Message Board Post: This is a long shot, but I just started doing research on the Baxter surname and already I am stuck. I am looking for the parents of William James Baxter age 33 in the 1930 census whoc married a Mary (age 27 in the 1930 Census). Mary had been born in GA as were her parents, but William was born in DC, while his parents were born in MD. They had children: James, Elwood, Dorthory, Eusuel(?), and Beulali )?). Any info you might have would be so appreciated. I hate getting stuck this early in the stage, but alot of early deaths in the family havent given me alot of family info to go off of. Thanks, Jodi
