Hello Actually up to a week ago ( I am 49 now) all I knew was my fathers grandmother was Grandma Dell and her brother was William and they were very, very old when I was just a kid. In one week I have Broken 2 Brick walls and found That she married Samuel Snell in Stark county Ill( His Wife has been a mystery for probably 30 years). then he died and she remarried Levi ent,( this explains why my dad always said that they were cousins) (now to find out why he always said we were cousins to Jessie James, another project) This week I find out the Strums came from Fredrick's county, and Washington County MD and so did the Snells,/ Schnell, Now it looks like there are over 11,000 on Web roots alone, and she isn't one of them. **** I am beginning to have fun now. I guess my winter project is starting early. Thanks for the leads everyone I am checking them all.
