Helen, Thanks for the information on Minnie Patterson/Bird McFarland. It still amazes me that I just happen to pick up that census printout and going over it when saw your email. I had overlooked Minnie's sisters (Sophia/Adeline and another one). I read my "pages of scribbling, etc like I do a book, hoping that something will just out to me. Please keep your eyes open for Wm. Martin Holt, Sr/Araminta Jane Pounds and their son which was my grandfather---Wm..... Martin Holt, Jr/Nancy Everline Gandy. I have enough of the stubborness of the Holt not to give up plus is so important to me. Dad said all my life that "a 100 years from now, one one will ever know he existed" I want to see that doesn't happen and that my kids, grandchildren have it all typed, ready when they get ready. Stanley (hubby) had his all typed on both sides of his family and really isn't important to him. Usually way it goes. Happy hunting on your Fowler, etc., family. I hope the census that I sent helped some on the unnamed children. Nell
