Glad the info was helpful (hopefully). It says in the book you can eitehr
request a copy of the will from the respective county or the South Carolina
Room at the Univ of South Carolina in Columbia. I have had several people
ask how to obtain will copies. Please keep us posted as to any other details
we should know. Thanks,
Heide

heidi - thank you, thank you, thank you.  i can't possibly go into all of
the
details (not that you or the list would want to hear them all anyway) but
the
john THAMES, jr that you found may be my (6x)g grandfather. i found some
information last night which led me to believe, from the name of one of his
grandsons, that the john THAMES, jr. you've found may be a tiny brick in the
wall i've been banging my head into.

my next question is this:  how do i go about getting the information that
you've
cited?  to whom do i write?  i can't wait to put all of this together.
thanks
again.
