Just some general comments ... no one can give you good help if you do not give : given name SURNAME, b ????, d. ????, m. who WHO, b., d., (paternal line two generations back is a big help). See this example: My fathers mother: Elizabeth GLASS, b. 11/17/1885, NY,NY, d. 12/24/72, NY,NY. she had two brothers that I know of, Wilson GLASS and Robert GLASS. she the dau of David GLASS, no stats, and Susan??? ABERNATHY???, no stats. both of her parents imm to NY, NY with the parents of her husband to be, John James PERKINS (VII ???) and Susan UNKNOWN, all four adults on same ship, all imm together, all got married in USA. this is all that I have on the GLASS line. Perkins line stops at this side of the big water, also. maybe this will help all of us la little bit Happy and a safe independence day. Bill Perkins, soon to be UEL I hope.
