I just noticed the LAY surname. My uncle by marriage LAY family were from the Ramsey, IL area early and LAY are still in the phonebook. I was born in Macon Co, IL and also lived in the Fayette Co, IL area while growing up. My own ancestral line is under the HIMES section of my homepage. http://members.truepath.com/beverly/index.html Beverly (HIMES) BARGER in NM [email protected] wrote: > I need to reach the Michelle who has been writing on this line.
