I am interested in the deed of John Bishop and wife Elizabeth to Thomas Bishop 12 Jan 1803. The only thing I have is an abstract from the Catron book. Is anyone on the list living in Lee Co. that would be interested in $ for getting me a copy and sending it snail mail? genpics@iopener.net if interested. Thanks.

Wynona, If the Vincent Beals/Bales born 18 Apr 1793 is the one you are looking for, I have a small amount of information. I have nothing on Johanna. My grands were Mary (Polly) Bales/Beals and Josiah Markham.

I am searching for information on Jarnigan or Jarnagins in Lee Co. Va.

Looking for information on Stephen Burk in Lee Co. Va.

We all need to remember to change our subject line headings.

Milly makes a good point. If something doesn't make sense with your family, or you are having trouble tracing an ancestor, consider the possibility that one piece of information might be in error and try to check the original records. Something similar to what Millie describes also happened with my family. My gggg grandfather Joseph BISHOP was listed with two different second wives. When I visited the Smyth County VA courthouse last fall and looked at the original entries, I found that a transcriber had inadvertently skipped a line and attached the wrong bride's name to my gggg grandfather. I GREATLY admire, and appreciate, the work that so may people have done in transcribing original records and making them available to family researchers like me. Without their work, I would be nowhere with my own research! But they do make mistakes, so we should all be careful about accepting everything that we see in books and on the web.
