Posted on: Wilkes Co. Ga Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ga/Wilkes/10650 Surname: BARNETT ------------------------- Looking for information on Lt. Joseph W. Barnett of the Irwin Artillery, Company C, 11th Georgia Artillery Battalion, CSA. Trying to locate any descendants in order to ID a post-war photo of him that I have acquired.
Hey folks, a post I just received made me realize that I didn't specify which CHURCHES I was looking for. Since the ancestors that I AM aware of were all of the BAPTIST faith or they were BAPTIST preachers/ministers, I would think that those are the CHURCHES that I would be most interested in, at this point. Sorry for the omission on the previous post. Thanks again, Gale Sanders _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
