A lady from the Library had already contacted me regarding my post offering to do a look-up for a nominal fee for the death record I found. So hopefully that will prove out that he is my relative and I'll have some solid avenue to pursue. It's been difficult to piece it all together from sketchy bible records, but I'm slowly making progress. Thanks again!
