Hi all, I found my Noah (my grandmother's contemporary). He wasn't a Breedlove after all. He was a Mullicane. I found some more letters to my grandmother from her sister-in-law. One of them mentioned Noah Mullicane. It said that he came to California after the bad flood of 1951 in Missouri that covered his house. He, his wife, and his son, died in California, in the Long Beach area. I know I have a letter from him to my grandmother, also, that mentioned the flood. I am transcribing all the letters and putting them into my data base. That way, even if the letters are packed away, I'll have all the information. I don't know why I didn't do that before. :-) Carole Colquehoun
