I can only hope that my inquiry will meet with the same degree of success as yours did!!! I got side tracked yesterday but will see to this today. I don't know how to explain it exactly, but I feel such a strong bond with all of my ancestors that, until I began working on my family tree, were mostly unknown or all but forgotten. It's become my "job" to record as much of our family history as possible as it had never been put on paper by anyone in my immediate family before. Thank you so very much for taking the time to assist me in this matter. Blessings. Leslie (AZ) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
