Forgive me, Carolyn for not answering sooner. We have been to the Gulf for a few days and have just gotten in. I had oodles of messages. (And appreciate every one of them!) Your offer is so kind. I have decided that for the most part genealogists are the nicest people in the world. When you have the time I would love to have Newton County marriages for the following children of Robert H. Thompson: Horris (Horace?) A. Thompson William C. Thompson Florence H. Thompson Algenon B. Thompson Eva P. Thompson All of these probably occurred (sp?) in the 1880s and 90s. I am also sending this to GANEWTON-L. Perhaps someone on the list knows this family. Thanks so much Carolyn. If I can't pay you back, perhaps I can help someone else. I hope so. Nelle
