    3. RobinSez: "an unusual occupation for a woman," E T sez: Your note is most interesting.....Years ago when my wife and I were selling real estate, we knew a elderly woman who had been a diesel engine mechanic. That's heavy, dirty work but she liked it. Said when she was a kid, she always hung out with father and brothers to repair fam car and such. E T sez, why not do what you like and that you are good at..... Also I knew a man who was a cooper, who worked up until the 50's making barrels for the old family owned Star winery here in Fredonia, NY..... Regards, E T.....

My Dye family has been a brick wall for many years. The Husband's family is out of New Jersey. three generations later the Peffley family comes in, and it is connected to the Boones. ( through Miller, Stover, and a few other lines like Dagley and Crowley, good Irish families.) It seems that the Boones were always courting someone of my descendants. Anyway this is all I know about Anna.

Yes, but the brother and sister married meaning: William 's sister Rebecca Bryan to Daniel Boone and then Daniel's sister Mary married William Bryan. Hence connecting the boones and Bryan's is Anna Related to Sarah Ann Dye? Her mother is Isaac Dye and Clarrisa Byrd. We may connect yet. Robin

    1. [BSChat] replacement windows
    2. Bobby & Sue Bates
    3. No offense intended to any fair-haired readers. I was a natural blonde myself until I was 4 years old! (That accounts for a few things, right?) SueB A young blonde lady had all the windows in her house replaced with new double-insulated energy-efficient windows. Twelve months later, she gets an irate call from the contractor complaining that the work has been done for a year and despite repeated bills and collection notices, she has yet to make the first payment. The blonde replies, "Now, don't try to pull a fast one on me. The salesman who sold me those told me that in one year they would pay for themselves."

    2. Pamela Booth
    3. Yes Peg, I love word play and it's nice having people from other countries because the variety and meanings are much richer that way. There is so much we can share all together. The internet is incredible for the opportunity it gives for rich, meaningful contact with people we would never find any other way. I have only been using it for about 2 1/2 years but I'm mind-boggled at the people I've met and the ancestors I've found. But I have just learned to cut and paste. I've been too busy tracking down ancestors as fast as I could. My kids finally insisted I learn.

I have one bunch that was involved in a gunfight in Helena Texas, where the sheriff was killed. They didn't seem to find out who killed the fellow, but they left the county and showed up out in west Texas with some other family connections. Their name was Parker, William & Daniel, and maybe James. I have to get the papers out to have them lined up right. They were no connection to Bonnie Parker, I don't think. Lee R.
