Are the Waddles and the Waddells the same family? I know there are some of them in _Kelso Kin Allied Families_ by Virginia Naylor Smith. There is a copy of this book in the Haywood Co Library. Thought maybe Waddle/Waddell might be a case of different kin spelling the same name differently, but it looks as if these two would be pronounced differently also??? Not my family, just curious. pat vincent
