Subject: [nscumber] MCWHIRTER in Cumberland County
Hi
The last few days, I have been going over my research information on the
surname McWh*rter, mostly from Cumberland County area; and trying to
fill in most blanks. I still have a few strays to fit in, but decide to
check with this lists to make sure that there are no more strays out
there that I do not know about. So if anyone has any McWh*ter, with an
"i", "a", or "o", and do not mind posting them on this list or passing
them on to me, I will appreciate it, so that I can make sure that I have
them included in my research.
Thanks
Kathryn
