Don, My mother was Sara Miller Pethel, daughter of Lottie Merle Shoaf Pethel and Alva Devon Pethel. Mother's name does not have an h on the end and I would really appreciate it if you would drop the h in your data base. Thank you and love all the research and hard work ya'll have put into this project. I am still in search of a lot of relatives of mine out of NC but finally did connect the NC Pethels to the Pethels around us in Hall County, GA. Also would love to find out something about Joshua Miller's father Samuel Miller and where he came from and who his father was. Have had no luck with this one. Thanks for taking care of this for me. Mother always got hot when someone spelled her name with an H and we used to laugh at her and could not understand why it mattered. Later in life I think she had a school mate that she did not care for that spelled her name with an H. Sincerely, Brady Wooten Kerr Brady W. Kerr
