Thanks Joan, I have her and the info you listed in your note, I just could not find her as a Steen....I think the Chitta they refer to must be near the Kosciusko area, one of those little places that just disappeared of the map. May be O.D. or Ken would know something about where Chitta was... I am sure it was not the town in south Ms. that Peggy noted...
