Thank you all who responded to my query about Terry and Nancy Holmes and What do I do? Everyone of your suggestions have opened doors of possibilities for me to explore. I will try them all. Unfortunantly, I live in Maryland and I will have to take off a week from work to work on most of the suggestions I received. However, I will gladly do it because the whole idea of investigating is exciting and I always get goosebumps and excilerated when I find my relatives listed in anything. While I am in VA I will look up an elderly cousin who was brother to my ggrandfather's wife. He said he will tell me about the 'goings on' in the Terry household as it relates to my gggrandmother. He told me the other relatives don't talk about it because of the out of wedlock issue. I will keep you posted of my progress. One day, once I have everything typed, I will give my roll call. Nemashtay! Francine _______________________________________________________ Get your free, private email at http://mail.excite.com/
