I let my handy dandy PAF program do this for me but according to PAF George Walter Ivester is my 3rd cousin 2 times removed.... <g>. I am collecting all Ivester info. - especially in terms of census, b & d dates, m dates, etc. and putting them into a database. That way perhaps it will help someone else. Although everyone on this mail list right now are from the Southern group from Hugh and Barbara I am also adding census records from other Ivester's as well. So if you are aware of any census records I would really appreciate you letting me know the location, state, county, pg #, etc. The indexes are not correct and most of the time it means scrolling through page by page which is very time consuming. Edna is also working on this. Hope this helps - take care - Emma

Boy!!! I thought I really goofed on this after reading Emma's answer, but guess what??? We are both correct because Emma and George Walter are related two ways..... 4C1R and 3C2R.
