I have no evidence that my great-grandparents were Quakers, but I have found other Quaker lines in my family history that no one knew about. It's certainly possible that this is another case of that. I'll definitely follow up on that possibility. Alva & Ida were my dad's mother's parents, and my dad didn't know that side of his family much at all. That complicates matters for me, because I have very little background information to begin my search with. Thanks again! Angela :)
