Subject: RE: [TMG] Immigration Place Record & Tag

Seems that I saw a rumor the other day that Billy Bob Elliott moved back
to
England on a ship. I must say that I was surprised. On second thought I
figured it must have been England, Rutherford County, Tennessee.

I have been blind sided a couple of times lately by people who recorded
places that no doubt were common to them as one word. I almost got "had"
by
references to "Indiana" and "North Wales" which I now believe were
references to a county and a populated place by those names in
Pennsylvania. <grin>

And then there is Egypt in Virginia and a number of other states, and
Tenth
Legion in Rockingham County, Virginia.
