    3. You are related to Dan Finton then. Martha and John were his ggg grandparents. Dan is the one who coppied all this information and sent it to me with the permission of the library. We got to know each other a couple of years ago through our Crenshaw and Crawford lines. I started doing the cemeteries a few years ago but they were not complete and I did not have very many. Dan was so kind and talked to the library and called me and told me that he could send the info to me and I told him what ever they would let him send me to put on the website I would do it so you can thank him too. I don't know if you know him but he lives in Warsaw. He is almost 70. A wonderful man.
