Oh MY God, you have been sent from heaven to us. There is a cousin of my husband's that I stay in close contact with. When I tell her about you she is going to flip. Darrell's oldest sister has a bunch of info that had been written down on small pieces of paper by one of his Aunts about the family. It went back as far as James and Mariah. They knew Mariah's maiden name but that was the end of it. As far as James went, he was our great mystery man. Darrell's Mom was told that he came from VA. as a young man. I couldn't find him anywhere. You can be sure that we will both stay in touch with you. Would it be alright if I gave Leota your address? There are a lot of family members waiting on this. Thank you so very much. Take care and I will be writing again soon. My email is smlowery0962@yahoo.com. If there is anything you want to know, if I have it it is yours. Sharon
