I havent found that anyone has researched further back. It isnt my tree... It's my sister inlaw's tree. I SAW hints of something at historical newspapers may 1843 and my curiosity is there to keep me going back. So if you uncover anything like this please keep me in mind.<br />jo arootdiggerA rootdiggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642330951208433671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-48452591587237793882010-06-16T11:01:35.549-07:002010-06-16T11:01:35.549-07:00Randy,
