I am hoping to visit GA in Dec and have the opportunity of finding my GG Grandparents graves at the Ebenezer Church on Coluin Rd. I do not expect to have a lot of time to look around for the church. Would someone please give me directions to the church from the Interstate? Mark McCall Albuquerque NM

Sorry, folks, I have had a crazy week and have not been able to reach all you MONROE CO GA genners. My ISP lines went down when a BellSouth cable was damaged by a water pipe that burst...that kept me off line for about 3 days, as well as planning my duties for a school fall festival...all is over, now...<whew> I have been checking out the updates on the Web Site, and am excited about the ones to come.....and after checking out other sites like this, one really ranks high in my book!!! Mary, we are truly blessed by the time and efforts you and your mother have made to make our Monroe CO GA web site so useful to our research family!!! Okay, genners, don't bother about an "organized posting plan" this week, just post as you need, or please, and take some time to visit the Monroe CO site, and enjoy. Feel free to add to it...I'm sure Mary will welcome contributions... when posting comments about Our web site, use this for your subject heading: "Our MONROE CO GA site" Jennifer Sherwood Braswell jensgen@iol10.com
