I have been to McCormick County three times and to the Huguenot reunion twice. They tour several places in the area . Andre Guillebeaus House is in the park like you said, it is usually hard to rent in the summer when I have been so I have never been inside. Old Willington Cemetery is in Willington. Old Willington Church site is across the road. Ther is also a LeRoy Cemetery in Willington kind of hard to find. The grave of Phillipe LeRoy Mary Ann LeRoy's brother who was a Patriot in the revolution is ther and other ancestors of his. Jeans wife Mary Ann LeRoy is not there. As for varifying the name of Joseph James you probably can find it in the McCormick County Library or go to see Bob Edmonds the head of the McCormick County historical Society. You can find him by going to the McCormick Chamber of Commerce. I got a lot of good information from his collection of papers. He is a real nice person and a good geneologist. He is not in it for the money. I got information from him from Albert Guillebeaus research and Claude Bouchillons research. Evelyn Jelly in Texas is probably the best. I have written a lot to Claude who is about 75 and lives in California. He is in my line from North Mississippi. We all go back to the area of McCormick in the beginning. Getting info from Claude is like pulling teeth he acts like he
