Karen thanks for the tips on trying to find my family. Judy thank you for the census info. This is my 2nd great grandfather, from Louisa. No 'late bloomer' here. :-) I find lots of info on these message boards and I really appreciate all the help, Thanks so much. Could someone tell me how to post a reply to this site w/o having to have this whole string behind it. It is so tiresome reading and rereading the same posts, esp, when the topics are sooooo much on another track. Thanks for any help.
