Thank you so much. I appreciate the help. I was told once before about William's not having Casper as a middle name, but I had another branch of my family with a middle name (not Casper) and I got confused about which was in error. I should have written it down immediately!!! Another lesson learned, I hope. I am in your debt. Thank you again. Jane (Martha Jane Hattaway Smith) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wesley G.
