Thanks for all the info. You have really done your work well. There were Freeman's in Granville Co. and that is where I believe Catherine Freeman was born. I've been thinking about getting a DNA profile done. Where do you think is the best place to get it done and what test? L.Brooks ----- Original Message ----- From: "W.
