How about a roll call of surnames everyone is searching? Perhaps we can make some connections, and fill in some blanks.... :) Julie Hesson Aberdeen, OH Searching for the elusive: ASHBY, John M. DECKER, Levi

My main OC line is SAWYER, focusing on Major James SAWYER 1738-1782. He married Elizabeth, whose maiden name was assumed to be BRADNER until recently. Could also be ALLISON. Major James' son Benjamin m. Hannah WOOD and his dau Elizabeth m. John KNAPP. Other surnames associated by marriage were NEARPASS and VALENTINE. I've documented these connections and more at my website http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Fields/3076. Also interested in CARPENTER and DECKER families of OC. Steve Sawyer in AZ
