Thanks, Sue. Add me to the list of parties interested in the Scottish (and one Irish) emigrants who settled in North Carolina's Cape Fear region. I hope all my fellow Tar Heels weathered the storm in good shape. I have a sister in Wilmington and other kin scattered across N.C. We got a lot of rain here in Northern Virginia, enough for flash floods, and some gusts strong enough to topple a few trees and power lines. But it didn't approach the havoc wreaked by Hugo and Fran, which brought sustained hurricane winds inland through Charlotte and Raleigh respectively. --Bill from the D.C. area
