Susan: Even without considering the question of who are the children of John, Sr and John, Jr, there are still a lot of holes to fill, e.g., I am missing some of the the census data, especially for the later generations, so there are several ways for anyone who is interested to contribute to this effort. Just reading what I have posted on the web and letting me know if something is wrong, or needs a disclaimer, clarification, etc. would be a great help. BTW: My local library called to say that the films that I had ordered on the newspapers are finally on their way. There was some confusion over the process - the Ohio Historical Society needed a pre-payment check for the total amount from my local library and they weren't aware of that fact. Apparently they got that sorted out, so they should be arriving soon. I will then inform everyone on this list which films I will be reading. Thanks for your interest!
