    3. Thanks Terry, I am DeForest's second cousin, once removed. I am in regular contact with his two sons, including the Master Chief (mentioned in the article) and also a nephew of DeForest, Sr. DeForest Sr. was the son of William Walter, son of Charles Henry (1843-1919) whom I think you have in your database.
