Dear DEHucks and list, The siblings of the deceased Elsa LAWS married to Peter BOWMAN (info I posted earlier) did, indeed, end up in today's Wilkes Co., NC, before 1800. That's where I posted the will of William Welcome LAWS, but in searching rootsweb, I can't find my posting. Are any of _my_ folks _your_ folks? By the way, I'm a techno-twit and can't seem to find a way to browse--not search--this list. I prefer browsing instead of searching, since I'm working on about 700 families, many of them linked together in VA and NC in 1700s. Thanks. Bonnie
