Hi, Thanks for contacting me. There are no Kirbys listed in the Torrey's Marriages by Melinda Lutz Sanborn. I also have the "Refugees of 1770 From Long Island to Connecticut" books out until Tuesday, May 13, as well. The "Refugees" lists Benjamin, Caleeb and Daniel Kirby in the Index. If you would like to have the information, let me know.

I'm in stage 2 of research by process of elimination, not the best approach, I realize... :) thanks; I'll follow any/all new paths... kirby in NC kirbz@northstate.net
