Thanks, too, for the marriage date, and yes, I thought it was odd that both her husbands had the same, and such an unusual, name. I'm still slogging through the copies we made today. Do you ever just start reading other articles? I have one here called "A Worthless Hussband" -- their spelling, not mine. So I plugged the family into Family Tree to see what happened to them. >>>>>>>You are GOOD :) Thanks - I was going to bed but can't go to sleep :( Last one. There is a bio up on the Mont site for Lincoln Hesler, but nothing else; which reminds me, I never check Fountain to see if these were there, so sorry I sort of forget about Fountain Co. Karen, are some of these coming through twice? I am not sending anything twice, but I don't think it's me because some of yours are coming through twice, too.
