    3. Actually, Turtle, I am wonder if you know more than us! From our Cornelius records Edward would be the 2nd great grandfather of Henry Cornelius, the father of Florence. We have no information on her at all. We have some pictures but nothing more. So, where can we get more? I love to research books so if you have any suggestions please let me know.
