Sharon: That different info on the church came from Norman, not me. So I can't help on that. Maybe we can trade info on the GIBLER and STRAIN families after you make your research trip? Happy Holidays.

I also have tie-ins to these families through my SURBER family connections, when Lucinda SURBER married my James KENT. You seem more familiar with the Christian Union Church than I am. Do you have any idea what became of this church, or if it still exists in any form? I've traced some early churches in Mont Co by going to the Mont Co. library, but am uncertain how to trace this old church in Highland Co. Do you have any suggestions? I'm considering making a tracing attempt on Wed. afternoon of this week. > >Sharon >
