I am delighted that my co-researcher Sue Folawn has found this site and passed it on to me. I am particular interested in this geographical location as both sides of my husband's family came from this area. As Sue has covered one side on this site, I shall give what I have of my husband's paternal side of the family in hopes someone out there will have further information.
