Mark, Do you have a copy of this publication? I've been trying to get one for ages. In the 1980s, I corresponded with Andrew and still have his letter in which he stated that he had seen the actual parish records for Robert's marriage and that Robert's wife was definitely Hannah Hyandson, NOT Elizabeth Hyandson. Evidently, /someone/ had transcribed the records incorrectly, skipping a line and picking up the name of Elizabeth instead of Hannah. So I'm surprised to learn that Andrew would have included this error in his otherwise precise genealogical research. Karen Greim Mullian kmullian@verizon.net Mark E.
