A well-written post outlining the division of land and creation of
various states from the areas known as the Northwest Territory,
Louisiana Purchase, etc. appeared on the BRADSHAW surname list Dec 16th.
As many of us are doing research in these areas, thought several
folks might be interested in reading this post.
Rather than post a copy to this list (cause I don't have the author's
permission to do so), here's WHERE you can find it:
Go to
http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl
Type BRADSHAW in the box
Choose year 2001
then search for either of these words: sir~le North~i~st
You'll know you've found said post if it mentions Richard L. Bradshaw
and is dated 16 Dec 2001.
Hope someone else finds this helpful info; I did!
