Hey, all Bedford Co Rooters, I found them. They were in the Bedford Co, VA Courthouse, all the time. I finally went there this past Friday. I found two of my brick walls: William Reeves Franklin and his ancesters and John McFalls and his ancesters. Isn't it nice to hear a success story ever once in a while. I wish to pass my good luck on to each of you rooters. God bless you all (and the Bedford Co, VA Courthouse), Flo
