Thanks, Nancy. I had sent a query on Bushnell, Gordon, and Hagan, and got a few scattered bits of info, which really peaked my appetite, and truly appreciated those who took time to do some research for me. My Bushnells and Gordons came thru MS, thus my interest. Below is a response I sent to George Lewis, who suggested sources I might use to seek info in my search. I will re-post my message later. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ethel Sacker" <paulsacker@centurytel.net> To: <GRlew@aol.com> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 2:31 PM Subject: Re: Bushnell, Gordon, Hagen > Thank you for your response.
