I have it recorded that GG grandfather was HOLDEN "R." JAQUAYS - also on his death cerificate. Pat Could be that he was known by middle name, very common practice. Also, families repeated names if child died. My grandfather Joseph was 10th of 12 kids. Firstborn named Joseph had died at age 2. Both were named after their paternal grandfather. Another idea - did someone remarry or adopt a child. Tink At 08:57 AM 3/19/10, you wrote: >Thanks for the input on Peleg.

Did Holden R. have a brother or uncle named Herbert? Could this be a collateral line of the family? Tink At 09:54 AM 3/19/10, you wrote: >I have it recorded that GG grandfather was HOLDEN "R."

Tink - The child (Norris) in the picture was born 1894- his father Herbert was born 1867 - Herberts father Samuel was born 1832 - Samuels father Holden was born 1810........... Holden died Oct 1900 at 90 years old. The picture was taken in Canastota NY probably about 1895. All but Samuel were born in Madison Co. Holden moved to Herkimer Co, married had his family and Samuel came back to Madison Co. I thank you for your time in checking out the names. Maybe some time I will find the connection to the names Lionel and Holden.............. thanks again. Pat J.
