Dear Sandy, So far I haven't been able to go back far enough to see if there could be a connection to Fanny. My brother has the family Bible, unfortunately he lives in NJ and I live in MI. One of these days I get it from him to see what is in it. Also, the Long name has really no connection to the West's. Dad always laughed when someone would call to speek to Mr. Long, since that really wasn't one of the partners's names. Use to joke about "Mr. Long"At 10:05 PM 8/18/99 EDT, being the REAL silent partners! I'll save your message just incase I someday can make a connection.
