Hi Richard, My great-great grandfather was Thomas Jefferson Foster who lived in Linden from 1841 to 1872. He married 3 times and had 24 children. He built the first courthouse which burned down. Could you give me the names of your parents/grandparents? Maybe I can help. Movita Foster Harris [email protected] > Ms. Thomas, > I have just begun atempting to trace my family.
