I have added my RACKLEY information to my Web site at: http://www.webracks.com/paula/genealogy/ Here is an exerpt of that part of my site: RACKLEY is my husband's line. Dan and I were married May 30, 1998. So far all I have on this name is a handwritten note passed to my father-in-law after a family reunion a few years ago. I am not sure how accurate it is, and he was given no documentation. I would like to document this lineage and find any interesting stories that might be out there about the line. If you have any input or want to post any queries, please let me know. I have really slacked off in my research, but it wouldn't take much to get me started again. Here is the line exactly as it appears on the note. I have compared it to "RACKLEY- A Southern Colonial Family" by Potter and Rackley...some of the spellings appear to be wrong, but I will begin by posting it verbatim You may also view this note online. I have scanned it in because the layout of the note may give clues to the meaning of the line. Please take a look and let me know what it tells you.
