Hi Marilyn, I had to respond, because my name is Philip French, And I live in Ringstead Northamptonshire, England. You may or may not know, But Northamptonshire is the ancestral home of George Washingtons family and,in fact, his uncle has a tomb in a church 2 miles awayu from me, in Thrapston. The Washington family crest bears stars and stripes (3 of each, I think, but I'm not positive on the amount) Sorry if I've wasted your time with information that you already knew, Best Regards, Phil French ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marilyn Horton" <mteach209@msn.com> To: <french@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2007 3:39 PM Subject: Re: [FRENCH] Philip French > Dear Bill, thanks for your letter.
