Hi Sherry, Thanks for the list of children of Lemuel HARVEY and Ann BALLARD.Your HARVEY'S and mine are probably related in some manner, but right now I can't make the connection. I am fairly certain that the J.M. Harvey I am searching for is John M. Harvey, not James Monroe Harvey. Do you know the names of James children? My J. M. Harvey had the following children: Jonathan b abt. 1870 Alabama or Texas Leonadas b abt 1872 Texas Willie F.(daughter) b abt. 1875 Texas Mary Parolee b abt. 1877 Texas C.D. (daughter) b abt 1879 Susannah b (unknown) There were probably several other children also. If you think some of these may be children of James, please let me know. Thanks, Cacj [email protected]
