This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Gillespie Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/5519/CiY.2ACEB/1162.1 Message Board Post: I am following up on my Mother's research from 1943/44-53 on her Gillespie line in NE MO. She wrote a Lucy Gillespie in 1944 in Downing, MO and a Mrs. Sally Byrd in Greentop, MO for info. We had a stepbro to our John Clinton who was named James Glaspie or Glaspy, living in Novinger at that time too. Perhaps there is some connection....as I've not seen these names come up before on the board with recent dates. I'd be anxious to hear any replies. Karen Rockwood (TX)
