if any of you have been looking and looking and found nothing, we had been searching for years and there was a time span that we could not find them. some we were looking for were in georgia, tennessee and alabama. guess where we found them....of all places, florida and i don't know about your libraries, but dallas and houston libraries are lacking in their materials on florida. just a thought...look in the index of the florida census. i got my britches just shocked right off my bod when i found particularly my shipps in florida???? they went down to fight the creek/indian war, i believe...may be wrong about the which war it was but boy did i ever get the shock of my life. just a thought that it might help someone out there. blessings, helen.
