Lois,

Thanks for the touchups on the parents of PHOEBE BURKS (or BURKES). Unfortunately, I have subsequently learned these persons are NOT my ancestors, and as such, my interest in them has changed to “casual” at best. Consider posting your findings to all of the relevant message boards for sharing and connecting with BONA FIDE descendants. A great place to start is RootsWeb.com. It’s a shame that so little is posted there on your husband’s Hardin and BURKES ancestors. It will take a little work, but RootsWeb.com posts usually result in tons of contacts. Good luck with your research. Thanks again.
