I’d like to thank all the helpers of Rootschat for what they did in helping me with my family search.  I understand there were times eyes were rolled. But I wouldn’t have the information I have if it wasn’t fir your help.  I have finally decided to finish my file on this man. James Nelson.  I know I’ve said it before. But I think I’ve done all I can.   Thank you all. Really appreciate your help.   Dalek.
