Directory while watching the U.S. Open Tennis matches. After I started looking and did not find any CHEESEBOROUGH surnames, I looked for other options. Here are two that I found some entries for: CHEESEBRO and CHESEBRO. Probably shortened from the European (probably England) spelling. Naturally there are tons of ELLIS entries. Let me know (via j7402ea@yahoo.com) if you are interested in the variants that I found. Jack Eaton Indianapolis, IN Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
