Hi, Bunny, I'm not new to this list , but keep getting bumped off for some reason or other. When I'm off, I really do miss the warmth and sincerity of the folks on the list. My surnames: LONG of Choctaw Co., AL and Clarke Co., MS COLLINS of Clarke Co., MS PEARSON of NC, Choctaw Co., AL PEARSON of Clarke Co., MS[these PEARSONS lived in eastern Clarke Co., MS and could possibly be connected to those in AL.
