Been following your Davidson information, appreciate your sharing. The "Perry" name rang a bell. I have a Perry or Parry Davidson born abt. 1853 in Franklin Co.,IN to a Richard Davidson and Evaline Applegate. Others listed with them are: Mary E (Riley), Corrinda, Lucinda (Riley), Francis M, James, Eve, nancy Ellen(my grt-grandmother), and Sarah J. Do any of these names fit your links??? I do not know about the Riley name and where it fits in. Richard Davidson was married in Delaware Co., IN then when Evaline Applegate, his first wife died, he married her sister or cousin Nancy Applegate. Thanks for your time. I would love to hear from you. F. Kay Hunter Roberts (FKR) On Sun, 5 Aug 2001 11:11:23 EDT JASaliby@aol.com writes: > I'm sure you are correct about research-for-profit.
