Hi Mark, Maybe I can help on the "Jr." part. In those days you didn't have to be a son to be called "Jr.". If you had an uncle, etc. who lived in the same place that you did, you were refered to as "Jr." on all documents until the older with the same name was deceased and then the "Jr." was dropped from the youngers name. I know this makes things a lot worse for US, but it seems to have made things a lot easier for them then to have the men separated in this fashion. This is just anoother reason original sources are so important. Wills can be a great source for this kind of information. Unfortunately, I've probably just made your quest a little harder. Anne
