Morgan, I'm also interested in your Devilles and Crooks; both of which cross into Andres and Mertens. I have nearly 3,000 associated names that I am preparing to present in Pineville, La. at the Mertens Reunion at Kees Park Saturday, Sept. 30, 2000. I'd love to have more connections to local people.
