I thought I would share the below msg that I received today, on two accounts. One because it is so great to know that several years after you send someone something it may be the piece they need and two because sometimes it helps to know that we are helping someone link to their family, and hey is that not what we are here for? Have a great night. Brenda Pierce Brenda: I found in my desk a copy of the last will and testament for James b. 1794. I received this from you back in 1999, and at the time I thought it wasn't for my family. This James was the father of the James hat I was researching. Anyway, in this will it lists the slaves that he owned and bequethed to his wife. Are there records available to possibly research slaves that were held in Butts County? I'm going to also e-mail GW to see if he has any more information. Thanks, Patti <BOLD> Brenda </Bold>
