Loretta, I too am Loretta and am researching many lines in MO who are not related to each other but they are related to me.-- I have MORRIS, BOTTS, HOBBS, REESE, ANDERSON, JONES, FRANKE in the Knox, Adair and Linn counties.---MORRIS and HANSON in Dent Co.- -COWAN & BUFF in Shannon, Howell and Green Co's.-- COPPEDGE, LOVE, SHINKLE, HARRISON, ROBERSON inCrawford, Phelps & MariesCo's. Most of these families came up from KY. I personally thank anyone who posts their or somone else' family. As in the case of the Coppedges, where does that line start and mine end? I have so much fun with my finds.--Good day, Loretta
