    1. Re: [ARGREENE] Rollcall: Compton, Gates, Green, Garrett
    2. Hi Janice, I don't know if I am related to her or not....but no, she is not my direct line of Comptons. But I have to believe that all Comptons in Greene Co. were related. Mine is from William A. J. Compton/Sierra Nevada Green. They had about 12 children from about 1880 to 1900. My grandmother, Irene Gates, married their son Richard Neal Compton. However, they were married less than a year when he died. My father was 3 months old and my grandmother was a 16 year old widow. She remarried several years later and moved to St. Louis with her husband and my father. He kept the Compton surname but had no contacts with other Comptons, at least in St. Louis. But there must be quite a few Comptons somwhere that are related to me!!! Gail
