Hilda, All of your messages are getting thru I have seen quite a few posting on the subject of subscribing. I want to thank you so very much for all that you have done and all that you are trying to do for this list. I don't have a strong connection to TROUP county as of yet, but I love reading all your little history stories about the county. The surnames I am trying to find out about in troup county are BARNHILL and WALSTON. Any one with any info on either of these families I would love to exchange info with. I will send more detailed info on these families in a later posting. I have to dig out my notes and find the marriage dates of these families. Once again your postings are getting thru and I believe you are doing a great job.
