Mary Ann I would gladly pay whatever you want for copies of these pages from Vol 1. You never know what clues are in there. My mailing address is: Margaret Mabrey 206 B East Road Cookeville, Tn 38501 I also have lots of other ancestors from Wilkes, Ashe, Alleghany counties. It seems that it was a path along the migration route. My Long family was there for many generations, which included: Vannoy, Stamper,Jones, Taylor, Tolliver, Absher, and many others. Let me know and I will send a check.
