Tracy, Sounds like a great idea. Imput a little of mine on the database the other day and sent out a couple of emails to other descendants of Abraham and Martha (Patsy) Sutton Simmons. I have just about nothing on that line other than my direct line and a trip to the Jones Co Courthouse is on my list of things to do next trip. Have not checked to see what is in the Grady Simmons information. I have a hard copy of that but lost the database that Gloria had sent me for FTM when my pc crashed. Some of Abraham's land which is actually in Lenoir Co is still in the family.
