If Sandra Mackley who was searching for information on the JOHNSON family in Jefferson Co MO is still on this mailing list, could you please email me when you have a chance? The email address on your original query (posted to this list last year) no longer works and I'm wondering if you have more info on your RYAN family. I'm looking for info on the RYAN's (Ellis RYAN in particular) who married the PIERCE family. We also have an Ida MOTHERSHEAD who married a JOHNSON, though I"m not sure if it's the same JOHNSON family as yours. Would like to find out! Thanks for everyone's help this past year...with a special thanks to Patty and all her helpers for our great Jefferson Co Gen site. Wishing everyone a wonderful Holiday Season, and a fabulous New Year! Jo Ann / jcat2@aol.com http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~jcat2/
