Several weeks ago I placed madison County TNGenWeb up for adoption so I could reduce my time commitment to it. I left all the files online because I always intended them to belong to TNGenWeb. The new CC will be moving Madison County to Rootsweb. Over the last 24 hours I have been moving most of the files to TNGenWeb Records. Jonathan Smith's Death Notice abstracts from the Western Weekly Review, formerly at Madison County TNGenWeb, are now at http://www.tngenweb.org/records/williamson/ Laurel has sent six files for the small third volume. I hope to get them online late next week. They too will appear at the address above. David soon-to-be-ex-CC Madison County TNGenWeb

If so I have some info for you to add on Susan Usery.
