Ta Da!!!!!! THANK YOU, Janice and all who worked on this project!!! My check is ready to go, too! My Christmas present to myself <BG>. For those who are "sitting on the fence" with the decision to purchase this book, may I offer my personal opinion? I have seen the book several times and it is the greatest! reading you will find. The clues are unlimited-----for these are stories told by members of each family on their recollection of their own family ancestry . My own discovery is one which I would never!!!!! have found elsewhere. A descendant told of John Kelley/Kelly 1755-1853 and named his father!!!! Robert Ray/Wray Kelley (b. Ire.) of NC!!!!!!!! I have since found a possibility that "Ray" was possibly a different spelling of the Wray surname; making another possibility that Robert's mother was a "Wray" Would never have searched NC records for this Kelley had it not been for the info in the book. It's also a great way to help the Preston Co. Historical Soc.!!!! We all WIN! Warmest regards, Carolyn
