PLUMMER, through their daughter, Lucy Jane Lyell (1827-1870), who married Patrick McLINE PINCKARD (1822-1871). I wonder if the family of the above reunion are any relation to my Lyells? In Lucy Lyell and Patrick Pinckard's Bible, in my possession, "Patrick McLine Pinckard, Jr. was baptised by Bishop James Osgood ANDREW at his Grandfather Lyell's on the 4th of October 1853." Another child of Lucy Lyell and Patrick Pinckard, Jr., was Jemima McNEIL (also spelled McNEAL in same Bible) Pinckard, who met her husband, James Redmond GOODDING in Macon County while she was there visiting relatives there. Other names in the family Bible are RAINWATER and YOUNG, both of Ray Co., MO, Walter HALLIBURTON, of Macon Co., Walter Lee HUNTER. I have just purchased a scanner and software to scan my genealogy material, including this Bible to the internet. Meanwhile, I am happy to do any lookups. Thanks, Carla Hunter Southwick
