Would like to establish a connection with the Aiken County and Richmond
County, Augusta, Ga. Green(e)s.  Charles check with the Aiken County
Historical Society about the "First Familes of Aiken.  They is probably some
very valuable information in this resource.  The folks there can probably
assist you in obtaining a copy.  I will e-mail  you individually later.
Take care Jerry.
