My great-great grandmother's (Mary Jane Haynes) mother was an Atwood, so I have been going back from that point. (That would be Samuel Haynes 1799 - 1888 m. Irena Atwood 1806 - 1893). And after finding out about the Atwoods of Sanderstead would be fun to find out if the Atwoods of Connecticut were cousins with the main line of my father's tree, the Minor's, who were also from the same area (Mary Jane Hayne's married a Minor). Thank you for your help, I will turn my search to that website for a while. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
