Surnames: Slade, Palmer, Hathaway Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/BBk.2ACIB/2362 Message Board Post: I am trying to find a connection between Horton's and Slade's. Amos Horton Slade was born abt. 1822 in VT, according to census records. Could Horton be his mother's maiden name? VT area was probably Bennington. L.C. Horton attended the funeral of Burnside Slade in Bennington in 1929. Must have been a relative. Burnside was Amos' nephew.
