Research it again. A son-in-law "sometimes" did mean what it means today. I quickly found cases it dd years ago. It's been years,but I did,and found cases where it did mean that. I was researching Brown's more than McQueens at the time. I had a year where I knew finally who my Capt-Lt-JP George Brown was, but not whether his wife,Elizabeth was a McQueen,or a Sapp,or something else. Mr Virden,in his shaky handwriting, told me Elizabeth McQueen. Robert Barnes,or someone and I differed years ago on his wife's and my John Brown's wife. I came from years of seeing the colony make 1st cousin marriages [almost a rule] on the frontier, while he came from researching Md records,and not further west. I was asked last night if I thought Grace was related to George and Mary Stevenson Brown, and I said no. I know that you've read,in black and white ,that Grace may have been a Brown,and that son-in-law did not mean as it says today. I've read it too. And researched it.I say that statement is not always correct, but I no longer can state where. Research it. We disagreed 20 years ago. Today,Md will abstracts are on www.ancestry.com . Dugal's will gave items to Edward Logsdon and John Brown. One got a great coat. It may have not mentioned daughter's names. It said son-in-law. Have you seen those tax lists showing Dugal McQueen,on the Anne Arundel-Calvert Co line .Cliff's of Calvert. I don't think my Brown[e] were within 15-20 miles that far south,but I can't prove that. Severn River at Annapolis,maybe I think Dugal was poor,and perhaps Catholic,and knew how to herd,but not farm,and knew waterman's skills,which did him no good at Cranberry. Knew how to herd,and ]or weave,or both,like most Scotch. Almost 4am. Going back to bed. On Mon, 6 Oct 2003 21:20:32 -0400 "J.
