Ok, I have heard a new rumor and I am wondering if anyone can verify it. Apparently one of the mills in the Durand area was bought by someone from KY and that he brought mill workers up from that area. I have never heard this one before, just wondering if anyone else has. Also, if you get a copy of an origional land patent, does anyone know what juicy info it would contain? I found out Orlando Perkins was issued an original land grant -- but wonder if it is worth paying for the details of it. Thanks, SQ -- HAVE A GREAT DAY! This is SuziQ......signing off!!
