    2. To the list; Well, we found a match ... I had a Heim kinship from Amherst Co., VA offering to do lookups there. She found a Thompson descendant that left her address in there in 1994. So, with a possibilty, from this info I went on the internet to the US Postal Service (USPS) and typed in the zip code, and found this was outside of Dallas, TX. So, then, I get on the phone as asked information if they had any Reed's in this town. Sure they had one, so information gave me the number. I called and asked the woman that answered some questions and sure nuff we are related through John Thompson and Judith Wills of Amherst County, VA, which this being her ggg and my gggg grandparents. We exchanged information, her and me through US mail and E-mail. We both had information the other did not, so this was a blessing. I had her ancestor coming to Sabine Co., TX in 1835 with the Eubank family (now, she can join the Daughters of the Republic of Texas), and she had Bible, Bounty Land Cert. of James Wills/ James Thompson, the Will of Creed T. Thompson, Death Cert. of Judith Wills Thompson records. Our ggg /gggg gf's were brothers ... Thank all of you that have helped finding our ancestors/match ... Elizabeth Reed and I will be meeting next week in Gonzales or Houston, TX if time permits. Sissy Hime Norris San Antonio, TX
