I hope you don't think I'm TOO dumb for saying this; but, I don't understand what you are talking about. Don't these boys have families? > >Geneology is not my area of expertise. I am looking for my disease, Friedreich's Ataxia. It's hereditary but I don't know of anyone in my family who had it. It's caused by a recessive gene so both my parents carried it. As such, it can skip many generations. My guess is that my ancestor who had FA died young [but not before having children]; and was VERY uncoordinated [perhaps, called a drunk out of ignorance]. I found another woman with Friedreich's Ataxia who is also a decendent of a REYNOLDS. She can go back pretty far but I can't go back any further than Charles. > >Susie > > t 01:18 PM 8/27/01 -0500, you wrote: >>Dr. Susan, >> >>Here is as close as I can get to your guy in the 1880 census: >> >>1880 United States Census - National Index >>Name Relationship >>Year Gender Race Birth Census >>8/27/01 Copyright © 2000 by Intellectual Reserve, Inc.
