Mara, Here is how they connect in our family. Nancy E. Dunsworth (1852) was the daughter of Deliliah Worrell and Thomas Melvin Dunsworth. Thomas was the son of John Dunsworth and Mary "Polly" Carter. Mary was the daughter of Rix Carter and Sally West. Sally was the daughter of Hezekiah West and Priscilla Osborn. Here is the report form. I am trying to determine who Delilah's parents are, and have put them in at number 18 from FHC micro fishe, perhaps someone can help on this. I did post a question about it a few days ago.
