We all knew, loved and respected Joe for his genealogy research and willingness to help others. I, for one, am in shock. Joe will be sorely missed and mourned by many. A friend of mine found this in the Douglasville paper today and called me. --- Judy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Joe Baggett, 55, of Douglasville, died April 27, 2002. He was born in 1946.
