Gail - Thanks for the update! I sure wish that we lived close, but here I am up in the frozen swamplands (Minnesota). Nice in the summer, especially if it falls on a weekend. ;-) My heart, though, is in SW Ohio. We really have tons of info to exchange. And when you're searching indices, don't forget to check the "Ph...." spellings! Wilma Engelhart found her William Faris' m. record with the surname spelled "Pharroz"! Since I'm trying to get as much as possible prior to 1800, I'm very interested in just what we can share! Do you have a scanner? I do, so can send you copies of what I have, either e-mail or USPS. The search is wonderful and fun, but don't drive yourself TOO hard! I knew a lady years ago who had a bad "nervous breakdown", driving frantically from courthouse tocourthouse trying to find her Faris ancestors! She never fully recovered, and of course had to stay clear away from genealogy! Such a shame. I am collecting info from ALL Faris(sp) regardless of location. Are you only interested in the Delaware info? How about NJ, etc? More later, Wilma
