Rebecca, Please forgive my slowness in responding to your e-mail. i am usually more efficient but I have experienced a death in my family and this has been my first opportunity to read my mail. I am not sure if this is the same Nehemiah but I am sure it is some kin. There are so many Poseys with the same names and born near the same times with so many records destroyed that it makes it so difficult to connect everyone. I will try to keep you posted on what I find out and you do the same for me.
