Thanks list ---I really appreciate the information. I have been trying to connect my direct ancester James (born about 1812) with Peter (Born 1820) and I think this will information has made the "start" of that connection real. It would also explain the repeat of the Peter name in both James & Peter's family lines. Peter's Civil War information says he was born in Gallia County so can for the moment, at least, assume that James who is listed as being born in Ohio was born in Gallia County too. This "tidbit" has certainly made my day and from one genealogist to others----I truly THANK YOU !!!!! F.K. Brown
