Sorry Mimi, I awoke this a.m. with flu and had 38 emails with 38 problems. Since I was sick, I tried to answer some of them as briefly as possible so I could get back to bed. I am terribly sorry I offended you and that was certainly not my intention. Everyone on the Wayne County and CRR list are wonderful people and many are excellent reseachers, so please give us another try.

Good morning, No, I am not related to the Wrights or Dickersons. I am a Burnett from Wayne. After working in the courthouse in Monticello for several months, I learned a great deal about the people and have spent many years compiling their records. What is your problem?
