Good Morning Jean and Others on the List: Now this is what I am talking about! Here I was speaking about what can and can't be done, had a name or two within the confines of my message, and you picked up on the RAWSON! FYI - I do not descend from this branch, only interested in the information for the Rawson Records. Boy am I interested in your revelations! Yes indeed Thompson Rawson did marry and to a lady who was in Chautauqua Co., NY. I can see that they probably wandered back and forth over the NY-PA stateline. This is what I have on Thompson Rawson.
