Combined Marriage Searches Part 1: This is my second attempt to send to the list but this time divided. The body of the letter will be the same in each part. I will combine rootsweb searches in this one. =========================== OK folks. I decided to combine several marriage files to send to the list. I know some people are just getting started with their Vestal line and others have been chipping away for a while. I hope it helps us all. You will see that there are some repeats because they are from different searches, databases, and sites. I find that it works best to keep it all to compare and to see where you have searched before and who has what. I did a new search today at ancestry.com's North Carolina Marriage Bonds, 1741-1868. I copied from <Vest> to <Vettel> to give various spellings. Hope this helps, Barbara Vestal Byrd ======================== Vestal Marriage Database Combined-September 6, 2000 <A HREF="http://tn-3.rootsweb.com:8080/~ncarolina/cgi-bin/marr_search.cgi?search_ by=Last%20Name&action=Next">http://tn-3.rootsweb.com:8080/~ncarolina/cgi-bin/m arr_search.cgi?search_by=Last%20Name&action=Next</A> NORTH CAROLINA MARRIAGES DATABASE...my search done on June 19, 2000 Your search yielded 13 results: Vestal GROOM BRIDE MARRIAGE DATE COUNTY Barker, Joshua Vestal, Elizabeth 25 Jul 1811 Randolph Dorset, James Vestal, Susanna 18 Feb 1828 Chatham Garner, Henry M.
