My thanks to all the responders. I had always seen the different pronouns
as markers for the Appalachian and Southern Dialects. Sounds like it's a
little more complicated than that. Too bad, I like the various 'uns and 'ns
even if they have been pushed out by all that flat land talk. :)

As I get into actually reading the book, I may have more questions.

Thanks,

David Alexander
