Posted on: Avery Co. NC Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/NC/Avery/426 Surname: SHELL, PRATHER, BURNS ------------------------- Thanks Mike, for your help. I have posted messages on all the counties and hope someone will recognize the name and contact me. I want to get a copy of George and Mary's death certificates but can't until I find out where and when they died.
