Hi, Everybody, I can find a lot of examples of this information on the internet..... Name: Loretta Ludington Sex: F Father: _Comfort Ludington_ (http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=hobart&id=I02510) b: 1770 in Bedford, Westchester, New York Mother: _Mary Mulkins_ (http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=hobart&id=I02325) Marriage 1 _William P. Andrews_ (http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=hobart&id=I02332) * Married: 17 Jan 1843 * But it is not correct...Loretta is the daughter of Nathaniel Stewart Ludington and his first wife, Huldah Tuttle. What I am wondering is if anybody knows how this information got started. I think it may have been with Martha Rabatin or Jackie Postelwait. I do not know how to reach either of these people to ask them. Does anybody have any information they can share with me...off list, please? I have come to the conclusion that the name, Loretta, was misunderstood and that the correct name is Lafayette. Yes, I know, it could be my wishful thinking...but, it seems logical to me. Any comments regarding my theory are welcomed! Elaine <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
