She is in this line. She is Sterling town historian.. Marilyn Rowsey Dirk Hi Marilyn, Yes, we've corresponded but not recently. I've met Hallie several times -- she is my second cousin once removed. I haven't seen her in several years, though -- not since way before her husband died. If you see her, please wish her well from me. Warm regards, Marilyn Hough Stern (My Oswego and Cayuga County family names: Baggs, Buck, Demass/Dumas, Hamilton, Ostrander, Perkins, Stock, Upcraft, Van Vlack/Van Vleck)
