This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Root, Gurney, Harper, Carr, Thayer Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SRB.2ACE/1109.1158.1.1 Message Board Post: I cannot find an AR Harper or Albert Harper born in that time period but I will contact someone who is a Harper researcher and see if she does. How do you fit into the Gurney/Harper line? I am hoping on the Gurney side as I know very little about any of them and have yet to meet an actual decendant of any of them.
