Does anyone have any idea which Thomas Triplett this is and what is his relationship to the Laines? The Trippin' Down the Triplett Path book didn't provide any assistance in my quest. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. KDH Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
