Hello, I am Jim of Okmulgee. I would like to share some kind words with you. Some people are ignoramuses and carry their personal feeling in the palm of their hand. Don't let them ruin your day(s), you appear to be much to important of an individual. My faith is Zoroastrian and I believe in the same God as you. I enjoyed what you posted and found a lot of faith and deep meaning within the words of wisdom. After reading the first two lines I knew that the writing was to be a message of God. I decided to continue reading and enjoyed what I read. Everyone else had the same choice. For those who did not enjoy what they were reading they could have simply made use of their d-e-l-e-t-e key. Then they could have gone on with their little lives. I don't think you owe anyone an apology. Good words, good thoughts, and good deeds, Jim of Okmulgee My research is pretty heavy into Virginia and West Virginia. Some of the names I research are; Gray, Lester, Swinney, Peters, Meador/Meadows, Lilly, Blickensdoerfer, Wertz, and Cruise/Crews.

Dan, I applogy for not getting the information to you to day, but I had so much trouble find out information on the relocation. The Hinton Library has the blueprints for the different cemetery and it list all the informatin, as far as what was found in the grave, who was list as to who to notify to get permission to move the grave and if they wanted it moved to Crews or one of the other two cemeterys that was set up by the federal government. But the family member was allowed to mvoe it else where if that was want they wanted. I made copies of most of the records, for it seem to be a good source and I wasn't sure what I would need. I promise that I will check the information this evening and see if I have him on the list.

Linda. I hope I am not asking too much, but would you make a photo copy of anything to do with the Mabes out of that book and send it to me? I will gladly pay any expense. There were a lot of Maabes there that are related to me and I couldn't mention all of them in my last mail.

Sandra, THANK YOU!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!THANK YOU!!!!! I have been searching for this family forever. Of course I was asking about an Amanda Meadows. You have her listed as Manda. Birthday is the same So I know we have the correct family. This is my husbands grandmother... In the 1850 Census of Mercer County that I have shows the last name as Bowling. I will have more information to search with when I go to WVa this summer. Thanks again. Also, I think I have seen you post on the Hedrick lists. Am I correct? Hedrick was my mothers maiden name. My grandfather was from Brown Co. Indiana.
