I will be very happy to send you the FGS for Benjamin & Susannah Gorton on down, so that we can help each other fill in the missing children. I also have a booklet on the Bartons of Oxford which is very good but of course its not complete either for the author did not find descandants for all of Edward, Matthew or Samuel's children but it has been a big help. I have the IGI sheet for all Bartons in R.I., Mass, VT and a few in NY. Easy to copy. muirhead@inetnebr.com Dorothy ---------- > Hi!
