Posted on: Amador County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/Amador/365 Surname: Messmore, Peyton, Payton ------------------------- Bertha Messmore (ca. 1890) was married to George W. Peyton (ca. 1869). The children I know about are: Bertha Peyton, Doris Jeanne Peyton, and Della Ann Peyton. I'm thinking there were more (via Calif. Birth Records)--were there? George Peyton was a cousin to my Mom's father, also from Amador County. I have very little information, so if you have more, I'd love to hear it! Thanks! JoEllen Ringhand
