Hi Barb: Yes there is a link I recognize all these names. I don't think we are directly linked though as I think you are connected to the brother of my lines. Thinking about it though if you go back one more generation we would connect ;-) What did you want to know? Would be interested in your descent too as I am doing them all. I was getting so confused with the lines so thought it would work it all out this way and it seems to be working. Still have a lot to put in yet but starting to make more sense. One of Charles (immigrant) and one of John's (immigrant) children married each other too. It is a real tangled web. Gaile P.S.
