Rebel KGC can check it out. I have found a better way but I have not tested it yet. It will cost me about $500. but if successful I won't have to travel.

what ya say rebel. not verbatim:
only if you have the time and resources,as not to take you from
your normal duties, if not leave the matter alone
:laughing7:

i was close LOL

It is, to devote only such time as can be spared from your legitimate business
to the task, and if you can spare no time, let the matter alone.

this is prob not the pamphlet morriss,just more to
mull over,beale was not @ this morriss when the census
was taken,it started in aug. & ran into sept. 1821
see link. the #s for free white males,show 2 @ 26
yrs of age or under,but not younger than 16 yrs
& 1 free white male 45 and over. in 1820 our morriss
would have been 32, if the obit of May 21, 1865 is
our morriss. this morriss must have had $$,as no one
on the census engaged in,Agriculture,Commerce or
Manufactures, yet had 9 slaves

I have always wondered about those two white males under 26 years of age if one of them was Thomas J. Beale?
