Your question
If you are advised that your question requires more extensive research, you
may come to the library or engage the services of a professional researcher
(

time available, we respond to only three specific questions per letter.
Please wait until you receive the library's reply to one letter before
submitting another.

question:

The type of requests we CAN respond to are:
Do you have a marriage record for James G. Snipes in Upson County prior to
1850?
Do you have a Confederate service record or pension for James G. Snipes, of
Schley County, GA?
The type of requests we CANNOT respond to are:
Who were the parents of William James born in Burke County. about 1794?
Who were the children of William James of Jones County 1820-1840? (Ask
instead for a will or estate records and hope that the children will be
named in that record.)
