Who I'd like to meet:
Lenard D. Moore in person. Distant relative Darren McFadden. I'd also like to meet my Carter and Stallings relatives from North Carolina and Virginia. It's a little complicated and I'm still doing the research. There may also be relatives of Cecil and Lester Johnson out there somewhere. That's another complicated story.
