Hi everyone, I have been researching the McNAMER family looking for a connection to my McNamers who were in Appanoose and Davis Counties. I have a great deal of information on the Louisa Co. McNamers and varying amounts of information on some of the lines that married into that family: BEARD, CLARK, WHIS(T)LER, KIRTZ, EARNEST. Carol: I have a copy of an old Garretson newsletter from the 1950's that was sent to me by a descendant of Sarah Eveline Whistler McNamer. Be glad to share it with you if you haven't seen it. Also, which Beard is in your line? I have Nancy Beard, daughter of Joseph and Adrianna, who married Philip McNamer in 1848. Finally, in regard to changing records; I think Carol was referring to changing modern indexes and such, not courthouse records, right? In that situation, in the genealogy library where I work, if a patron tells us of an error in a modern indexed book and shows us the proof that it is indeed an error, we asterisk the notation and, depending on how much needs to be changed and how much room there is, will either write it in the book or type up a label noting the correct information and stick it somewhere close to the fact in question..
