Paul Tumblin, I inadvertently deleted your msg about a LAURA BRUCE ( think that was the name) from SC? I'd like to have you contact me w/that information again, if you will. My mother was a BRUCE & it's possible that there are 2 lines of BRUCE in her family - we've not been able to determine that completely yet. One is a definite NC line of BRUCEs (from the Iredell/Alexander Cos., NC area. The other may be a SC line of BRUCE. Thanks for your time, Sarah shstu@aol.com
