Kathy, I just spoke with my cousin and she told me that Mr. Neil will do more than cemetery. She said he got antother cousin of mine some other records. If you could email me directly with his info. Maybe he knows where I can find copies of those marriages. They might be on microfilm at the library.

Hi, just to clarify, his name is George McNeil rather than George Neil. He lives in Wilkesboro, just South of the Millers Creek area. He does not use e-mail, so written correspondence is the best way to reach him. He is one of my third cousins!
