Thank you for your information. We have most of the "snow birds" in this state, think we are even getting more than Florida now. :-) The Early James is mine know most he had a son Jeremiah (want this proof) who had a son Sanford Allen all of Washington twp and Neville. These are the ONLY three people i am interested in as i have all the rest and vital statistics on most all of them. I have contacted the Neville Town Council and a lady from the Post office is doing her best, but as yet nothing. Would appreciated your keeping an eye out for any of these three, but am looking for only proof. now. I will contact Alma Linn in hopes.
