In case anyone was interested in reading the transcription of this Diary, and since Maynard said he couldn't find it: Go to the US GENWEB archives on rootsweb, click search by state, click VA and use surname Wall (some of those Wall boys married Meredith's, still tryin to find a Surname for our Martha (Patsy) ? Poythress). There are two parts posted on there. The first one had the reference to the Poythress, I was talking about and I haven't read the second one yet. Elaine
