Jennifer, I rcvd your email. The names were all written with capital letters, but none of the names listed were printed bold. Of the names you have listed it appears that the only overlap or possible common area is with Irwin. When I find any of the Irwin/Erwin etc. surname families I usually keep the information. Part of the reason for that is that my Erwin Grandmother is the only grandparent I personally knew. Also is the fact that it was she who spoke to me of our NA heritage. The other reason is as I had mentioned before, the variety of spellings for the same individual! I have come across information on these individuals I believe. Mary Emily Hatcher and Emma Spencer both sound familiar, so I have at least seen them in my meanderings. They are not as far as I know in my family line, but I will check them against my info. and share anything I locate. My primary interests at present are with: ERWIN, etc. /RUSHING/JONES/DENNIS/TRIM(M). (I also have more than a passing interest in the GOODBEE and CLARKE families of Washington and St. Tammany Parishes of Louisiana from the late 1700's or early 1800's forward.) I am interested in what info you would share regarding your, and any Irwin (etc.) families or individuals that you have. I am interested in all of my ancestors, not just the male side of the families. I noticed that I am not working on the range of surnames that you are, so are you working back that far on your family alone??? ARushing warmrushing@ worldnet.att.net
