    3. Some of the Libbeys ended up/started out/went back and forth in the Shapleigh/Acton area OR they might have been Baptists like my Shoreys, so records are difficult to locate. Since Stackpole listed the children without birthdates, there are probably no available records in Berwick. I suggest that you check Strafford County, NH. I only have a few Libbeys in my database, but the name is one that catches my notice when I'm researching, if you know what I mean. At 10:25 AM 3/1/2003 -0500, Allen E. Humphries wrote: >Yes, I did.
