Helen, In reference to military records, MYGGgrandfather John W. Smith was a Capt or Lt in the civil war and I am told he was drowned in the CapeFear returning from a prisoner swap to Virginia. He was from Bladen County. My GGGrandfather, Enoch Boradeaux was captured at Fort Fisher and taken to Elmira as a POW, and died there. another GGrandfather, Hugh Lockerman was also in the civil was and was buried in the family cemetery in Salemburg, NC. Any info on these will be helpful. Woodrow Smith.----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2005 9:28 PM Subject: [NCBLADEN-L] Think I know what happen > When I was sending links for military records, they were going to > Rootweb-request instead of Rootsweb-List, so I kept trying to resend them, don't know why > they were going to Rootsweb-request, because I double checked the e-mail > address'.
