Annabel, I find it interesting to consider how connected everyone is. I am from Benjamine Bradshaw's (m. Ann McBride) brother William who married Judith Scruggs. I believe that makes us about 5th cousin. My direct line came through Tennessee then onto Texas. Other's went onto Illinois, Iowa and Arkansas. 20 years ago we could have never been able to find so many distant cousins. Instead of one tree, we have a forest going! Joan Bradshaw Bomkamp
