To all of you that are resposible for this wonderful site, I want to wish you the very best holiday season and a wonderful New Year. In the fifteen years I have been searching the web, the Shelby County site is the most complete, the easiest to navigate, and is a constant source of new information. I believe by the time I am through I will be connected to over half of Shelby County, and it is only through the help this site has given me, Now for my question? Who is this Joshua Spurlin, whose photo graces the home page. I checked out as far as I could, Joshua, b. 1804, Joshua, b. 1826, Joshua, b. 1841 and Joshua, b. 1859 and could not find any of them listed as a clergyman. Thanks for all you do Rick Leland Richard McLester Leland III Family Historian; Family d'Aulnis/Leland rml31946@frontiernet.net http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lelandva/
