What is the > name of your father and his father? They must be in Cope's book, too! It must have been a pretty good unknown reason because I DO descend from MA John and no, my dad etc. are not in Cope. If we both (you & I) descended through the same John, we would be no more distantly related than about 8th cousins. My records show that the common ancestor for both MA & PA John was (is) William DUTTON, son of Ralph DUTTON & Elanor/Elinor Puleston, married to Agnes CONWAY, PA John descending through their son Hugh and MA John descending through their son Thomas. -----------------------------------Snip---------------------------------------------- > I'd be willing to bet, too, and I told her to look under different > spellings, she still can't find it.
