You are a charming weasel, and I did just that! I scrolled back to January 22, which is about 800 E-mails down in my Inbox and clicked on the link, which was, indeed, there! I got my answer to my question even before my own message came back to my computer! I just got very busy trying to figure out how I am going to type the proofs and sources, using Caleb Johnson's article, that Mary (Unknown) was Stephen Hopkins' first wife. I see that this was such an important message for you to send out to me that you sent it twice. You must be practicing your rapid-succession firing! Yes, I had kept "kloz's" posting to inquire about it, but since I have been busy since the full moon in January, spreading the good news about finding my great-great-great-grandparents bured in Erie Co., PA (After searching for 130 years and knowing that they lived in NY!), that I have an overload of information, E-mail, and everything else right now! Thank you, and I promise not to do it again, Gendarme...er...Genferret!
