First I want the 'thank you' for sending me the information you had on Mary Presson and husband. I also want to 'thank you' for that wonderful saying and picture that was also in that email. May I have your permission to use that saying? I want to give you a bit of information that I have on Mary Presson. She married William on August 20, 1808 in Surry Co., VA. Now Mary's parents are: Tomer Presson b: July 23, 1750 in Charles Parish, York Co., VA and his wife was Elizabeth. They had nine children, one being Mary. Now Tomer's parents are: Robert Presson and Frances Tomer and Robert's parents are: Nicholas Presson and his second wife, Elizabeth. I also wanted to ask you about Talmadge Booth. I saw that he (not sure if that is male or female) wrote a letter to you, his he related to the Pressons? How? And how are you related? We are planning a trip to Richmond, Virginia on August 27 and will be staying with a cousin who lives on Mapleton Road in Richmond, is that near where you live? We will be meeting, for the first time, Billy Austin and Dianna Presson who also live in Richmond. We will be going to Yorktown to do research and in Surry County to the Courthouse there. Do you have a copy of the Booth Family Bible? Could you scan me a copy? I'd like to find out who Mary's children were. Do you think Yorktown would have any information on Mary and her family? I wonder if she left a Will? I didn't understand the surity of $500? What does that mean? I'm still learning.....I've only been working on this since Nov of 1999. Thank you for helping me and may God Bless You! Joann
