Thanks, Odessa. That is the kind of proof that we need to see. It is too bad that the gentleman who stated that Gabriel was the son of Hector isn't online, and on this list, as I suppose he was jumping to conclusions about Gabriel, just because the name is the same as Hector's grandson. Proves that in genealogy research, we can never jump to conclusions.
