Download that Bankston timeline spreadsheet (above) by clicking on this link  http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pNbKnKmj8jWI8yTUtpkTAQg.  You can then sort it differently, rearrange columns, delete rows, add information or whatever you need for your own purposes.

Documents with signatures of the early Bankston ancestors are linked in the spreadsheet above and collected in Picasa albums.  You can click on the document photo shown (left) to see one entire album.
  You can download the photos freely.  Please contribute by sending any similar photos of early documents. 

Cynthia is working on a spreadsheet for DNA results that holds a lot of promise for solving a few Bankston puzzles.  Look for that soon.

The information here is the newest material on the web.  We've accumulated more information, but no one has said anything, so new updates are on the back burner.   Let us know if you are interested:  rsbeatty@gmail.com.
