Hi List, Well, I guess that my Duncan Oliphant must be the spirit of the Oliphant clan, because he just appeared in 1811 at Harrison County, Ohio out of nowhere. And his wife Sarah Beamer must be the spirit of the Beamers, for she did the same thing. I guess this could be Harrison Counties immaculate reception. Please let me know if they appear again in your histories. Thank you, John D.
