Hi John, Yes, I have a copy of the story that appeared in "The Consolidated...History," though not the book. I did some digging a while back and found some discrepencies in the chronology/genealogy written there. I haven't taken the time to document them as of yet. I've been too busy wrestling with the McNamara/Mack clan. ~k ------------------ > Kate, in the book "The Consolidated Ethnic History of Wyandotte County" > by > Loren L.
