Kathy, You are descended from John Snoddy Beach LONG (1852-1918)? How interesting! I do not have the descendancy of his six children, perhaps you can fill me in. John LONG's younger brother was George Washington LONG (1860-1925). George married Mary Ellen DAVIS (1859-1940). One of their children was Winifred Lenore LONG (1894-1968). Winifred married John Henry HAUB (1888-1958). John was the son of Frederick H. HAUB (1853-1940) and Sarah Margaret OWENS (1859-1952). Sarah's older sister was Nancy Tabitha OWENS (1857-1960 - yes, age 103). Nancy married James Buchanan BROWN (1855-1925). James's youngest sister, Kittie Lavilla BROWN (1881-1936) was my maternal grandmother. Is that sufficiently convoluted?
