I am able to find Solomon's born at the right time. I was told by a couple of people that the names Saul and Solomon were sometimes interchanged. Thanks for any info/help anyone might be able to give. Thank you in advance. Cathy Hudson *************************************** QUESTIONS about POSTING GUIDELINES, SUBSCRIBING or UNSUBSCRIBING?
