    1. [SCBERKEL] BOOKS

    3. The list of additional books that I sent out yesterday is a continuation of the books listed on the Bladen County website. If you will click on the url below my name it will take you to that list. I will be glad to do a lookup for anyone that asks, but please, please don't give me a surname and ask if I have anything on it. If you are requesting a lookup I need to know everything that you have and/or what specific things you are looking for. Please give me all the names, dates and places that you have. I have worked for hours on lookups only to be told that they already had all of the information I sent. The plantation pictures will be a difficult project. Only a few of the 13 plantation books that I have are indexed and then it is usually by the plantation's name not the owner's. Three of the books were published in the 1800s during a time that many of the now-lost plantations were in magnificent condition and if we can find something for you it will certainly be worthwhile. One of the books has over a thousand plantation pictures in it so it takes quite a while to search for your request. Again. I need the state, county, plantation name and owner's name if you have any of that information. I have two books that I can use to try to cross-reference the names of an owner with his/her plantations. Some of the plantation books have a lengthy history of the home and families that have lived there, three even have the floor plans. I will send you this information too. There is no charge for the pictures or the mailings, - just be a bit patient while I wade through this. I have much more on the homes of South Carolina and Georgia than I do on North Carolina.
