Hi, I think we've spoken before. I've looked through every genealogical record my grandmother collected, and also through everything I've found on my own, and although your Curtis girls sound familiar to me, I cannot find any matching names in my own records. I will keep your names in mind, however, just in case I come across anything. This must be a horrible brick wall for you! I'm sorry I haven't returned your email sooner--I've been offline since Saturday, thanks to the stupidity and general incompetence of America Online and their so-called technical "support". Don't get me started. :(( I will keep your girls in mind while I do my own research. Good luck1 Allison Carver In a message dated 1/23/05 8:09:05 PM, casey@erienet.net writes: > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/TmQ.2ACIB/1977.1 > > Message Board Post: > > Hope you're still at the same email address.
