Recently I posted a line and got some "new" responses and connections. I hadn't posted my particular surnames in awhile. Since that worked so well and we're ever changing on these lists thought I'd give it a shot on some more of my lines. So you'll receive several surnames I'm researching in separate postings. If you have surnames that have these surnames married into your lines I'd love to hear from you. Thanks for being such a great list. Judy Brown Rasmussen CO
