Well, I started six months ago with the purchase of this computer, researching my Harper line. I have had astounding success, meeting many distant cousins and am now a confirmed Harpergene.nut. Although we have not gone beyond our CHARLES NELSON HARPER b. 1805 in (KY?) we are searching for him. I guess I should have started at home because just a few miles West of here is Harper Dry Lake and when I dabbled into Seismology, I discovered that our house sits on the Anticline of the Harper Fault. I hope it doesn't move in my lifetime. If anyone knows of a possible link for Charles Nelson Harper in KY or VA please hollar. Best of luck to all the Harpers looking for kin.
