Anne, you mentioned Waller. Are you only researching Waller in the delmarva area? Is there a family message board or family site for Waller? I have a Benjamin Waller who married Stacey Fletcher, 6 Nov 1831, Copiah county MS. Stacey was probably a sister of my Sarah Fletcher who married Wm R. Gresham, 1824, Copiah co MS, their dau was Martha Gresham b 1825 who was the second wife of David Malone, in 1841, Copiah co MS. David and Martha are my gr gr grandparents. Am anxious to learn about the Fletchers, maybe someone in the Waller line knows something.
