Alice:
Thanks so much for your reply on the Baptists, if Lauren has replied to
my message below, I have missed her answer. I am sure she is
overwhelmed with requests; however I am still interested if she has
anything in her Book that she has on them. Your reply is a big help to
my further reseach. Thanks again.
