so I'll remit $8 + $2.50 = $10.50 in the form of a money order.> What is your own connection? Clue me in and maybe share stuff for our bulging
> collection of over 7,000 sheets now.As with these Dyers, I'm a descendent of Charles Dyer, 1755-1831, who served
in the Revolution in Capt. McKee's Company. I live in Indiana, a couple of
counties east of where Charles lived, having moved there to follow the HURST
migration into Harrison County, Indiana. My mother is buried in the same
cemetery, Bethlehem, where Charles lays, and it's likely my final resting
place as well.I have to date identified 861 descendents and 422 descendent spouses of
Charles Dyer. It will take me a day or so to prepare a register nicely-
formatted register book descendancy and include some narrative material
that's still in my head. If I send it in the form of a MS Word document,
will you be able to print it out for inclusion in the folders? I realize
family group sheets might be a better choice given the nature of the files
but Brother's Keeper's groups sheets don't look very good when rendered
into word processing format.I will also prepare some material dealing with Charles' ancestry. Long
thought to be the son of William Dyer and Nancy Hurst daughter of William
"Brindle Bill" Hurst, Charles is instead the son of John Dyer, 1723-1822,
who died in Washington Co. KY. I have scanned some photocopies of original
probate documents, such as John's will; strangely, I have only the first
page of the will, but the researcher who supplies it supplied a complete
transcription of both pages.> Verda Baird 2791 240th St Fairfield IA 52556
