Dear Alvin, When I get to the book store, I will browse for the White family in addition to the Bell family. One of the Bell's I am researching may have married a White or a Whitehurst. Is there a Nina White/Whitehurst in your list of descendants? She married Mike Bell.

"The Legacy: African American of Jackson County, Florida," (Heritage Publishing Consultants, Inc., December 2006), is part of an ongoing effort by African Americans of Jackson County to document and preserve the history of African American's role in settling and developing Jackson County. The 160-page, hard-bound book, with a comprehensive introduction and photographs, is a collection of family histories (with a surname index), and histories of churches, businesses, clubs and organizations. The first edition quickly sold out. A second edition will be published in the near future. "The Legacy" contains twenty-five reference to Bells and forty-three references to Whites. Roy L.
