Hi Cyndi, I've been following your mention of the 1872 Atlas Map Book. Wondering if you could check it for mention of Watson land (Edward Watson purchased land Morgan County on 11-12-1855 as follows): Lot 12, Section 16, Township 16N, Range 13W, Meridian 3, County of Purchase Morgan, Acres 5.92 Lot 13 (same as above), Acres 16.12 Edward Watson died in 1863 and willed this land to his widow, Letitia Watson. I would also appreciate looking for any mention of other Watsons, particularly James Watson, Edward & Letitia's son, who died in 1876. Thanks in advance, Marie Ginter Butcher Elmira, NY --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month!
