Dale, are you trying to give me a heart attack?! Oh, this just adds fuel to the fire! Those Woods are all over Edgecombe, and thanks to the Y-DNA test, we now have a Willis Dean in the fold. We also have in the fold a James Minton Dean b. 1788-1790 (see the reference to Jonathan S. Minton in the lineup of records. Do you suppose that is Jonathan SMITH Minton ????? Hee Hee! For someone who has made fun of the Mills-Forbes-Bryan crazy truncated family tree, I'm beginning to think the Dean clan's is no better. If yo9u remember, Jack Pearce Dean and I have the same fourth great grandparents on my grandmother's side, and because one of those Texas Bonnells married one of those Texas Deans, and thanks to the Y-DNA test, we now are cousins (as yet to be defined) on my paternal side. Yee Haw. SDL -----Original Message----- From: gascreve-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:gascreve-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Dale E.

These parcels were on or adjacent to Bark Camp Branch / Creek in Burke County (this could now be Screven, Jenkins, Burke, or Jefferson County).
