How ill-mannered we all are, and that includes me! Welcome to the Lawrence List, Jim. It has been pretty quite around here lately, hasen't it? I suppose everyone is in the summer doledrums or out fishing or something. If there are any Basham researchers out there...I have a file I put together on the "BASHAMS In the Early Tenn Tax Lists", that gives mine and some other researchers "accumulated knowledge" and guesses of who these Bashams were and where they ended up. Its not finished and may not be correct and I would like your opinions and additions. E-mail me if you would like it and I will send you the attachment. I have also done one on the very early Richard Basham and another on Johnson and Jonathan of the Early tax lists. Welcome again Jim, Carleen Carnivale
