Delilah: Remember me? We corresponded a few years back but a few sick spells and a computer crash or two has caused me to lose your address. Sophia Davis Avans, wife of James W, was my grandmother's half sister. Thomas Avans wife, Sarah Page, was a sister to Margaret Jane Page Lancaster, who was my wife's great grandmother. Would like to correspond with you. I have lost all data that I sent you and vice versa. Paul R.L. Vance 5263 E.
