Thanks Rosalee, I was afraid I was boring the rest of the list. I'm just so grateful for any input, this woman/branch is driving me mad. Not bad considering if it wasn't for her I would never have started researching the family tree at all. I merely went to the library 23 years ago to find the names of Dad's grandparents because he never knew them, nothing more. Found his mother's birth, noted the names, then since I still had time to fill decided to see what other children they had. Eight births and a marriage later and I had discovered that his grandmother Catherine was given 6 different maiden names. McKenna, McKan, McCanner, McKinnon, Lemon & Casey. And that's where that line stuck until last Boxing Day when I finally made the connection to Margaret KENNY. Typically, instead of answers, I found more questions. So any suggestions are welcomed. Somehow I need to separate these women and hope it doesn't take another 23 years. cheers Minuet At 09:10 AM 26/01/2009, you wrote: >I have no help for you Minuet, but I just wanted to say what an excellent >discourse this is to follow between you and Lesley. > >I'm enjoying the logic and the problem solving- and like always when Lesley >is involved, I'm learning. > >Thank you both > >Rosalee
