Hi Debbie, Would you look for any Jeters? I found an article in a book indicating the Francis Jeter home was demolished fairly recently and it was so well built it was hard to bring down. Seems like a bad thing to destroy a house that old and that wellbuilt. He is supposed to be buried somewhere in back of the house. It was called a plantation house but it didn't look very big in the picture. I've taken photos of pictures in glass and they came out rather well. You can't use a flash. I took the pictures outside. I've also xeroxed pictures and papers in frames and they worked out well, too. Thanks, but no thanks, for your house. I don't know where Stockbridge is. I'm in Jacksonville and just bought an 1890 farm house further south. Thanks a lot, Laura LJSwilley@Juno.com On Fri, 15 Jan 1999 09:01:43 -0500 Debbie Fowler <micajah@mindspring.com> writes: >Hi everyone, >We still don't have a lot of subscribers, and because we don't, I >think I >can make this offer<G> >My uncle, was Benjamin Fowler, from Meriwether Co.
