You're very welcome! Thanks for being patient with me! I think that I might have found it online, but it's been a couple of years since then, so I can't say for certain... But it should be available offline as well, this link lists libraries where it's available - http://www.worldcatlibraries.org/wcpa/top3mset/2078733 :-) (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Biographical+Souvenir+of+the+States+of+Georgia+and+Florida%22 also includes other links as well to places that have it or that reference it) As I think I mentioned earlier, I lost part of my database a few years ago and I haven't had time since November 23, 2004 when my daughter was born (LOL), but I do plan to work on comparing my computer files with my printed-out version as well as other reference materials that have been packed up in boxes about that long as well) Regards, Allison Goettee (Goethe) Newton > From: Stephen Wolgemuth <[email protected]> > Date: 2007/07/24 Tue PM 12:19:10 EST > To: <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [GOETHE] Dr. James E.
