Hello Jeff Martin, Dec.23, 1996
----re:----------------------------------
>I am researching my 5th great grandfather Jesse Blackwell. Jesse married Mary Crow in 1776 in Goochland County, Virginia. Their daughter, Sarah Blackwell was born February 27, 1790 in Virginia and married Noah E. Stafford about 1806 in Roane County, TN. Noah Stafford was born in South Carolina on Sept. 3, 1782.
Can you tell me anything about Jesse Blackwell or point me in a direction that you feel might be a promising avenue?
Thank you for your assistance.Best regards, Jeff Martin jmartin@avalon.net
------------------------------------------------
Did you look at my Blackwell web site: http://oasys.drc.com/~blackwell/blqltoc.htm
The above names seem familiar. Other researchers are looking. Everything I have is on the web site.

Can you tell me where you found me and Can you tell me your address and whole lineage to Jesse?
I will post your query and look for Jesse, later when I have more time.

Best Regards, and a Merry Christmas, David C. Blackwell dblackwell@s1.drc.com Dec. 1996
