Hi there, I don't know where Franklin CO in PA is, but I know I've been in touch with a Robert Wylie, PA, near Wilkes-Barre, who is also a descendent of Andrew REED and Jean MURRAY. I don't know how far back he was trying to go, but I know he is that far back. I'm really trying to find something that goes further. :-) Thanks for your inquiry!!! -David -----Original Message----- From: gordon crooks [mailto:glcrooks@bcpl.net] Sent: Friday, October 20, 2006 6:02 PM To: DaveReed@midmaine.com; irl-antrim@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [IRL-ANTRIM] Andrew REED and Jean MURRAY, circa 1730's?
