Five important articles published in AAFA ACTION #54, Fall 2001 have been hidden, since 2005, under a heading of Tennessee Research when only three pages pertained to Tennessee.

prepared an old fashioned "hand crafted" genealogy which was published in three installments
in the quarterly where it is listed as about Peachman. See these three parts here:
Daniel Alford 1853 NC m. Harriet P. Powers
