I have made contact to the messages about Alfred McDaniel in July 2009 and info from Joe McDaniel gave me the most information. It seems his info was well researched and sort of gave the resources from which his info came from. I do not like to put info into my family tree without telling where it came from. I am hoping that if we could all pool our info and where it came from it would save us a lot of time. I would be glad to collect the info if you will email it to me and then I would print it out and send it by regular mail or email. I am wondering if Joe McDaniel is the same Joe McDaniel that wrote the loose leaf notebook about the McDaniel family from Montgomery Co. VA and gave copies to the children of Charles Henry McDaniel who live in Winston-Salem, NC? If I add Joe's info my family tree goes from his William McDaniel in King George and Prince William Co's. i! n 1734-1740 to the McDaniel family as they lived in Botetourt, Montgomery and Floyd Cos in VA and I have just traced one family into WVA. Some of the McDaniel's lived in Salem, VA (a short distance from my house). I just found a cemetery that is full of our relatives and I would be glad to send you photos of their tombstones. I am going to Floyd Co sometime in the next week or two and I will try to find the records of Alfred in Floyd Co. I will give you my email address and email address. I you will do the same and attach all the info you have on the McDaniel family and tell me where the info came from I will put it all together and send it to you. My grandfather was Charles Henry McDaniel, ggrandfather was Edward, gggrandfather was Reuben, ggggrandfather was Alfred Sr. I have already begun tracing Alfred's children. Please help me. Jerry L.
