Posted on: Avery Co. NC Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Avery/373 Surname: Wiseman ------------------------- Karen, You should purchase "A Wiseman Family" from the Avery County Heritage Museum. It is WONDERFUL! I have a copy and will do _limited_ lookups for you. If you are interested in Wisemans from Avery County, this book is almost 300 pages of pertinent information, well researched, thoughtfully analyzed. Tom doesn't make any money on the sales of this book so I encourage you to write to him and fill in any gaps he may have on more recent generations. He is a wonderful person. http://www.mindspring.com/~ltward/averymus.html Also Cozie Taylor, grand-daughter of Martin Taylor and Thompsie Wiseman, wrote a booklet of her memories growing up in Avery County, NC. Scanned images of the pages are available at http://www.mindspring.com/~ltward/cozie/. Leslie Link: Leslie's genealogy pages URL: <http://www.mindspring.com/~ltward/genealogy/surnames.html>
