Title: Poitical letter to 3x grandfather James P.McPherson
Post by: Jhill8992 on Thursday 23 July 15 00:42 BST (UK)
I have a letter written in 1841 to my 3x great grandfather James P.McPherson, which pertains to  an upcoming election.  I would like some help deciphering the name of the writer  --- and any other input someone more knowledgeable than I about the time and place the letter was written.  You can find the letter on my blog:

You can also contact me by email if the letter is not clear enough for deciphering the handwriting

I am most appreciative of any help that you can provide.

Thank You,
Joan Hill
