Hi Bobby, There is an A. Rawls near Mt. Tabor Church (Mapleton Community) between Murfreesboro and Winton. There is a D. Rawls just over the county line into Northampton County near the Pleasant Grove Church and next to the Ahosky Swamp creek. I don't see any other Rawls in Hertford County, and none in my quick scan of Bertie County. The map has tiny details, so it's possible I missed one, but I don't think so. So not J. Rawls, but perhaps relatives? I hope that helps! Happy Holidays! -Susan At 20:56 12/19/01 -0000, you wrote: >Thanks SUSAN, > > I am collecting info. on ALL RAWLS everywhere, I have between 25,000-50,000 >individuals in my files.
