Thanks Kathie.....it appears to have stayed the same. Now I need to find Nantmeal village, Chester Co., PA (1700's) Turkey Foot, apparently either Chester Co is now Somerset or Nantmeal is now in that county. -----Original Message----- From: cherokeegene-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cherokeegene-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Forbes@lists9.rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2015 12:33 PM To: cherokeegene@rootsweb.com Subject: [CherokeeGene] Pennsylvania counties Not sure what happened in Tennessee, but as in many states there were only a few counties to begin with and then as the areas became settled they broke them up into smaller units.

I don’t recall if I responded to this, but I wanted to let you know Judy that I appreciate this info & the links. I’ve been looking at them & they are going to be quite helpful, in several ways. :o) So if I didn’t already say Thank you…….please accept my apology for being so late in expressing my appreciation for this info below :o) I’m a little extra excited right now as I FINALLY got a response from the CNO that might have some answers to a land record that I’ve been asking (everyone) about for years……I may finally get some answers…..YEAH! And I don’t care if its not what I’m hoping to hear……I’m just glad someone decided to stop ignoring me. :o) YEAH!!
