Surnames: Terhune, Young, Ransdall, Dean, Robards, Cloyd Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/gBB.2ACI/2117.2123.2134.1.1.2.1 Message Board Post: Thank you Bennett, sorry for the long delay I've been away from genealogy for several months. My YOUNG research is a dreadfully slow and painful search. But I strongly suspect that the names you mention in your posts are going to tie in with our Cynthia Terhune nee Young. She named a son "Thomas" born in 1854 - first time it appears in our direct Terhune line. But MORE significantly, she named a son "Harvey", born in 1857. That's a more unusual name and, our Terhunes have collateral links with the Ransdall and Wheeler families. Cynthia Young Terhune's 10 children married into the Terhune, Dean, Robards, and Cloyd families. I hope your research has been more fruitful. 8^)
