  1. Ms. Gunkel: We have never met but give me a call or email me at trkemp@PlantationQuilts.com I could have given you the Last Will & Testaments with my ancestors names in it from Dover Hall Plantation in 1844 & 1858 Glynn County, GA. Slave Valuements and more.

    I am sending the book done by 5 generations of my family to the publisher "Keeper of the Fire: An Igbo Metalsmith From Awka. It would have cut the debate short.

    If you had questions you could not answer.... contact me.

    Cordially,

  2. What you're saying is completely true. I know that everybody must say the same thing, but I just think that you put it in a way that everyone can understand. I'm sure you'll reach so many people with what you've got to say.
