Well after Rick's and allen's long lists mine looks puny but here goes My Lymans go back to 1631 the rest I haven't been able to get to them yet, I am too busy trying to document thousands of Lymans in my file. Which I have found approximately 1,125 each in the 1880 & 1900 census and still looking in the 1900 and then on to the 1920& 1930 So I will be kept busy for a while and then hope to be able to get to the rest of my Grand Parents Grand Alvin Elliot Lyman 1881-1919 Grace Ethel Raine 1882-1944 Benedict Hoffard 1863-1902 Matilda Habel 1862- 1929 Great Grand Franklin Pierce Lyman 1850-1888 Nacy Ella Cook 1856 William Raine 1845-1922 Margaret Atkinson 1845- 1933 Adam Hoffard Margaret ?? Joseph Habel 1839 Mary ?? Great Great Grand Chester Lyman 1801-1874 Anna E. Mack 1804-1894 -- Wild Bill, North Pole, Alaska The enemy has us surrounded...the poor bastards!
