I have an idea for the corrections and additions to Dorothy's book. After putting them here on the List, how about everyone putting their corrections at the MyFamily.com websites that have been created for the various children of Daniel Maupin and his wife Margaret Via. That way the corrections will be there for those who come "on board" later on. Also, a place to put the additons and corrections for all to see and use was one of the purposes of these websites being created, as I recall. Anyone who needs an invitation to join the Jesse Maupin and Lucy Jones MyFamily.com group should send a request to me and I add them as members and they will receive their username and password to access the website.

The book came within 10 days of my ordering it, what a great job. For your information (and Dorothy does know of this correction, we had conferred several years ago and documented the correction/spelling, etc). Page 180 bottom: Under Thomas Maupin (22) Line: 1st line under (54a) John Dabney .... Samuel J. (J is Jennings) married Elizabeth Gilmore: Nov 2, 1820 in Mason Country VA.

Evalena husband # (2) was Adolph Bukey (not Buchy) I have further information on the Silas T.G. Maupin/Martha Bukey line if anyone is interested. I may post it later for other's databases. He was my great great grandfather, was in the Civil War, went in a covered conestoga wagon from Kansas to New Mexico, homestead land in Farmington, NM, fought in the Indian Wars for the Territory of NM, and I have lots of stories of him. I also have info on the Bukey line who were also old Virginia family. Take Care all. Happy New Year.
