In the last issue of BACK TO BLADEN, July 3, 2001; VOL I #3 there is a reprint article by Herbert Russ entitled "Bladen County Russ Immigrants." It is stated that Mary RUSS married John Farrell POYNTER. In a letter dated Mar. 31, 1997 to us he stated, after we had contacted him regarding the "Farrell" name he stated "...John Ferrell Poynter, should be John Turville Poynter. The correct spelling should be "Turville." Mr. Russ no longer lives in Teague, TX, but is living with a daughter or near one in Colorado. Betty & Allen Betty & Allen Johannes abelj@htcomp.net
