Pictures of Davis property 1997. House is off the road several hundred feet. There is a path from NC15 that leads to the cemetery. Continue past the cemetery and you will arrive at the house after passing several outbuildings, including the two-seater outhouse.

Crazy day fighting with TNG. I did get two gedcoms loaded so I now have 3 of 4 family groups available for researching. I just wish I could figure out what is snagging things up.
I also found out that individuals can be volunteers at the NGS Conference next year without paying to attend.  They won't be able to view the entire venue, but they can get to particular lectures they want if they are willing to volunteer to help as monitors!

I've added the 1997 newsletters to the website Comet-Lines.com FRECOGS newsletters. And the Feb issue is complete. I had to start from an original copy because of a filing error.
