Hi Jeannie, It certainly could be Grace as well. There is the definate ce at the end, and the bottom of the first letter could be the botton of a script G. I'll take another look to compare.. I compared the little part of her first letter with a couple "George" on the page and it could be a G as well, and when enlarged to 400% I see a shadow of an r rather than an l. Did you notice the other Kepner on that image, they had a nephew with them but no Grace..

I agree that it could be Grace. My viewer could only enlarge to 200% and with that I just could not see much of anything besides the "ce"..... -----Original Message----- From: JHL1188@aol.com [mailto:JHL1188@aol.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 12:50 PM To: PA-CENSUS-LOOKUP-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [PACEN] Re: Thank you 1900 A--ce KEPNER Hi Jeannie, It certainly could be Grace as well.
