Thank you Kenneth for all of your information. That fills in a number of blanks for my records. Would love to have a copy of the Hartley picture if possible. If it's on the web site perhaps I can get a copy from there. I'll have to check your site again as it has been awhile since I looked at it. Guess this link makes us a very shirttail relation. I'm beginning to think that almost everyone in Douglas County is related in some way. Thanks again.
