RIDENS, Excluded (Continued,next issue) KNOW WHERE r RESEARCH SOURCES The HEART OF TEXAS RECORDS published by the Central Texas Genealogical Society, Inc. (Waco) Volume XXIII, Winter 1980, } Number 4, has an article that our members should be aware of. This is one of the publications that we exchange with, so the issue referred to is in the Bryan Library. The article is on pp. 117 - 120 and is titled County Maps, How tc Order From Thirteen Southern States. The article gives the maps that are available, cost, shipping information, and where to write to order them. County maps are such fun when a specific county is identified with a family. Even old communities that no longer have a post office will be pinpointed on county maps, and all the little rural cemeteries are shown. There are also all the little streams and creeks with names that will help in identifying land descriptions. The states listed are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. For those of you who are saying, 'Why wasn't my state listed ?' Write to the highway department in the state capitol of the state you need and ask for their order form or informa- tion. These are available in states and are not expensive. Good huntingt Granville GILPIN Excluded SINGLETARY Excluded S. F. SIKES Excluded W. J. REEVES Excluded Luvina UMPHRAS Mary A.

This report is published each year as part of the Ga g ressi'onal-serial set The _Li.brary owns most, if not all, of these reports as part of their collection of federal documents. These reports are rather dull for the most part, but they do contain in many cases records of newly discovered (or marked) graves of Revolutionary soldiers. In addition, source records are sometimes reprinted in the back of these reports. I've included a few of the major instances of these records in the main part of the bibliography, but it is possible that someone would want to examine each volume. Unfortunately, these volumes are not well indexed. Below is a p . Lelimin ary cross - reference from the year of the D.A.R. report to the serial set number.

The February meeting will begin what should be a very interesting feature. One person will present a puzzler -- something in their research that they need help with. The Puzzle Presentation will be five minutes long. At the end of the five minutes, time will be called and the group will have ten minutes to brainstorm some avenues of solution. Christine DULANEY has asked for the first spot. Someone volunteer for the Parch meeting. Do you have a puzzle you want help with ?? Now's your chancel!

QUERIES / VUESTIONS ` 028 BARNES, PRESLEY, HAINSWORTH, BRASHIER 77 Please help me find my great-grandfather Pleasant BARNES (especially those of you who are searching graveyards). His wife's maiden name was Sarah (Sallie) P RESLEY E'. (b Many, LA, 26 Mar 1840). She was married first to Elisha HAINSWORTH or BARNES. Sallie came to Texas ca 1870. Her daughter, Ruby Belle BARNES, was born in or around Bryan on 19 December 1871. Sallie remarried (James Thomas BRASHIER) in Bryan on 22 Jan 1879. BARNES was supposedly a Texas Ranger, although the Rangers have no record of this. Sally RADEBAUGH, 8782 Dolomite Drive, El Paso, TX 70904 Members!

Branch Library in Seattle, which is about 20 minutes from his home. How about that! He sent this bit of information for people with lines in Pennsyl- vania (especially German ones). Lutheran Church records (old ones for much of the state) can be found at Philip Schaff Library Archives Dept. Lancaster Theological Seminary 555 West James St. Lancaster, PA 17605 Mike says they've been very helpful with very little to work with--usually just surnames and approximate areas and/or dates.
