Good to see you are still kicking. Are you in the same place in Fla. I went by your place several times, on my trips to your area, but you were never home. Doing some great research on my Page line C and have finally backed them, back to Co. Suffolk, England. Did a quick visit to Walsham le Willow, Co. Suffolk, last July 08, and need to go back for a more extended visit. Will be sending out my document ENG 10-1, on this research, very soon and will try to remember send you a copy. I am now living, in Fla Keys, Islamorada. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Page" <nancy@digital.net> To: "'Art Klinger'" <aklinger@charter.net>; <page@rootsweb.com>; "'George W.
