Ruby, Thank you. I have all that material. But it was nice to see someone putting up stuff on my Downing line. If you should happen to come across anything on that Francis of 1624, keep me in mind. A lot of people keep insisting he is the beginning of our line in America. Maybe they know what they are talking about. But several links are missing, to say the least, and I'm not sure how they can be so poitive. Sue Hodnett
