Sue, FANTASTIC!!!!!! I'm so excited!! For you and the rest of us! For them to come up with a record that indicates his parents to be Archibald and Susan, it obviously has to be Archibald and Susanna. Thing is that while I don't have a baptism for a James, it must be! That would definitely explain the Gilbert-name connection as Gilbert Yearns Covey b. 1817 would have been a brother to your James. While the year of birth is a bit sticky, the likelihood is not. I have dau Louis b. 24 Jul 1810, and the next as Candace b. 28 Aug 1813. What might even end up being the date is Dec. 1811...! I'm just trying to figure out why he was never baptised, or at least why not with his brothers and sisters. Those baptisms are about the only records we have to their existance. We know we are mssing at least one or two children as his family was listed as a family of 11 in 1825... Too interesting! We seem to have found yet another branch to Samuel COVEY"s tree. pam At 05:42 PM 2/18/98 EST, you wrote: >Hi Pam, > >This is Sue again. My information just came from WI.
