Mary, It does seem that we do keep running into each other :) I hope you and your family had a Merry Christmas. It looks as if your John Summers could be my John S. Summers's father doesn't it. I am interested in any leads on this line. If you could send me the info on him that would be great. Would you like what I have on my John Summers?? It isn't much at all. I do hope your John had a son named John that would make it fit even better.
