Susie, Hi! I'd love to have a research companion or two or three here with me. Am envious of our cousin Carole in Pennsylvania who can usually find cousins to go to the libraries and court houses and archives and cemeteries with her. Way to go, Carole!

Hi Ruth, Do you know of a connection? I don't. A quick search on-line shows numerous websites listing Ian Esom Faris' birth and death dates in the 1600's. He certainly had a very unusual name. It would be too great a leap to connect my Faris lines to someone who born almost a century before the earliest of mine who is known. I'd be happier to connect mine to their parents. ;-) Dan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ruth" <ruthplay@scrtc.com> To: <FARRIS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, March 17, 2006 7:57 PM Subject: Re: [FARRIS-L] Moses Faries (died 1812) Family Bible Records > Was this Moses Faries descended from Ian Esom Faris? > > Ruth > > Love is, above all, the gift of oneself. ~Jean Anouilh

Thanks so much for sending the information about Moses and his descendants, Dan. I always enjoy learning more about my ancestors. It is so neat that you are there and can do the research first-hand. Susie (Your cousin in Oklahoma.)
