I'd like to add a few words to your dialog about Amison. I am descended from Clarrissa Amerson, b abt 1816 and husband Arthur R. Cook. Arthur had a brother named Green Cook. So, despite name being spelled differently, they are possibly related. There is an Amerson/Amison/Amason website at <A HREF="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~amasonamerson/genindex1-2.htm">DESCENDANTS OF URIAH AMASON and wife, BETHANY</A> Perhaps at some point you can tie into that line of ancestors.
