I know I'm a stranger but nothing is settled here yet re my late Mom's estate, etc. How much longer! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I was contacted by a gentleman a few days ago who, after hunting for ever, found me as he thinks he is descended from the Gorin family. Yes he is and we found yet another spelling on our name! From John Gorin & his 2nd wife, Elizabeth Turpin Duval of Glasgow KY - to their son Rowan Gorin and Nancy James - to their son, James S. Gorin and Sarah Reynolds. The latter is the one who had 4 sons - William, John Rogers, Samuel and Joshua - all of whom spelled their names Goren except ... He found William Gorin aka Goren aka GORN in OH and it's our boy. He provided me with information on William and it's quite a story to put it mildly. He was married several times, but ... didn't bother with divorces between times. Our skeleton? I'm still hunting for Joshua and can't find him yet after all these years - most ended up in TX except William above. It pays to have your name on the web I guess; the family is growing! Hope you are all well and one of these days soon, I promise!! Sandi
