Carol There is , somewhere on the net, a rather lot of Information on this family and quite a bit at the Library of VA. I haven's got around at the moment to reassembvling my files on that group. I unfortunately had a crash that led to the wiping of both my main Drivbe and the backup. Some is on CD but scattered and not well organized. There is an on line tree that has a fairly good list, however. I will tell you that therte are two Daniels, one in Richmond and another there and in PG county MD who are agents for Lord Brian Fairfax and Duty tax colletors. Follow up on Dennis, I beelieve he is the Carolina Connection. The best thing to do is take Yahoo or altavista and search "Dennis McCarty" then Search "Daniel McCarty" You should find windriders site which has a pretty good break down on this line. Also I would suggest checking the other sites this brings up, a lot was happening with this group as it has a large number of researchers who descend from them in the Deep South. I have only recently redirrected my attention to that family as new evidence seems to point that way again. But I still have not eliminated the Louisville families for my connection. H. S.
