Hi Max. You need to subscribe to the list before you can post, I know it's
a
hassle, but it keep the list from being bombarded with spam. Send your
request
to with the word subscribe in the body of
the
message. Once you get confirmation that you were successfully subscribed,
resend this post to the list ( *no "-request"). I
read
you're post quickly before responding and I do recognize the names in this
query as other have posted questions on Thomas Jefferson Bradford as well.
I
can tell you now this is not my line, but it would be good to focus your
search
in the Granville Co., NC and surrounding counties. Good luck.
