Just though I would let you know your attached file did not transfer correctly. Typically, I don't accept attached files anyway for fear of a virus. I am a big chicken I guess. I would love to know about your wife's family to see if I am connected. Sincerely your possible cousin, Judy in KY

Is it possible that I've been running across Asa's descendants in the mid 1800s in Iowa as I research my Giffords? I'd also love to hear more about Asa's descendants. Patty Mulder PMulder749@aol.com http://members.aol.com/PMulder749/index.html

I'm searching for any information on Eleanor GIFFORD, born about 1790, probably ? in KY. She married Stephen SHIPMAN on Dec. 5, 1808 @ Shelby Co, KY. and died AFTER 1849 (when Stephen died), possibly in Crawford Co, Illinois. I have no other clues on this elusive ancestor. -- Thank you & sincerely, Allan Griffith, # 1 Jodi Lane, Bloomington, IL, USA 61701 home phone: 309-829-2063, if no answer try 309-828-2059 most reliable email: magriff@bigfoot.com alternates if above doesn't work: magriff@davesworld.net OR magrif@pol.net HomePage: http://www.bigfoot.com/~magriff/

I'm searching for any information on MARY LOU GIFFORD who married Joseph Hill HOLLEY from Angelina County, TX. No further information has been discovered. Luann

Does anyone have any information as to where in Iowa Alfred's family may have been from? I also need his father's name. We have him marrying Fannie Davis in Bakersfield, CA in 1886, and more info regarding his life after 1886, but only his mother's maiden name, Margaret Wagoner, and her birthplace, Illinois. Any info would be a BIG help! Patty Mulder PMulder749@aol.com http://members.aol.com/PMulder749/index.html
