Hello Delores! Thanks for the information. I'm not sure if I saw the original email or not; I get so much JUNK in this email box that I often miss the GOOD stuff like this. Do you have any other information on the Meurlotts, ie, who was Samuel J married to, the names and b/d dates for their children, what kind of jobs anyone had. Thanks!!

I'd mentioned the Opal Meurlott in question was daughter of Samuel J. Meurlott and that Samuel was brother to Edward Meurlott. That's still correct. But I had said Edward married Clara May Ryder and that Clara was daughter of Eliza Jane (Parks) Ryder. (Eliza being first cousin to my ancestor John Henry Loy.) However, after more census research, I discovered though Clara M. (don't know maiden name) was Edward's wife, my relative Mabel Blanche ("May") Ryder was married to Edward's BROTHER Emile. I'd still be "shirt-tail" (in-law) related to Samuel J. Meurlott, but wanted to post this correction should anyone have used info from my previous post for their family records. ==== ILEFFING Mailing List ==== If you want to subscribe to this list or unsubscribe from it, send e-mail to ILEFFING-L-request@rootsweb.com or (for the digest list) ILEFFING-D-request@rootsweb.com and put the word subscribe or unsubscribe in the message body. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
