A couple of years ago I requested Gayle Blankenship's book and her husband wrote back saying she had passed away. At that time, he still had a few of her last edition of "Some Families of Bedford & Washington Counties, Virginia and Orange County, NC. I bought the book and would be happy to do lookups for others. Researching the families of Robert Boyle(1751-1834), his wife, Jemimah Dooley, Bright, Crews, and associated families. I have a private family tree on Ancestry.com called 3 Brothers from Ireland.

Linda, could you, at your convenience, check to see if there are CRANEs, or CRAIN/Es in the Blankenship book. I also have some CREWS in my line. Thank you very much.

At that time, he still had a few of her last edition of "Some Families of Bedford & Washington Counties, Virginia and Orange County, NC. I bought the book and would be happy to do lookups for others. --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage.
