Jack Thank you so much for having confidence in our work. We will promise to do our best to help you. I've read the article. I just spent the day in the Cleveland/Bradley Family History Library and there are a multitude of Bradley Historical records there so hopefully we can locate Nathan and Sarah. Can you tell me if you have had any work done at all or places where you have already looked so I don't waste your time and money in re-doing what is already done? I have a friend who has done some work on the Tallents so she might give us info on Nathan...we'll sure check on it. Now, as for the given name Greenberry....I've seen it as a given name several different times in several different families. The Removal of the Cherokee occurred in 1838-39 so if Nathan shows up in 39 or 40 I'd say he's gotten a land grant. I have the Ocoee District Land Grants indexed and we may find him there. Since Greenberry was born 10-22-1833 in Georgia, we'll want to pinpoint WHERE in Georgia so I know where to look for Sarah. Do you know? I'm going to assume the northern counties...perhaps Murray?? I can do more study on the situation when I'm not so tired and not so brain dead. It's been a long day. If you have criteria you would like for me to follow as to number of hours please let me know....otherwise I will bill you every two weeks or so for time spent searching, analyzing and reporting the findings to you. I will email you along as I locate information and mail you written reports with all listings of data searched as I locate data. I've usually been sending digital pictures of the important data in printed form and on CD. If you prefer anything different please just let me know. If you would like to send a retainer fee please mail to Joyce Reece, 210 County Road 488, Etowah, Tennessee. (I'm in McMinn County...it is a 30 min drive to Cleveland/Bradley co Library so we won't have a problem getting to the data. I'm continually suprised at how pleased my current clients have been with the searching we have done for them.

My sincere apologies to the Holt list for the email. It was intended to be sent privately. I'm soooo sorry. Joyce Gaston Reece

I am an amateur genealogist but I read as much as I can and try to learn from others and so I read this and Holt is one of my lines but I was not at all offended by your message. I am glad to know those in specific areas that offer assistance at cost or not is the other persons decision. I enjoyed the letter although it did not help me in my search.
