He was born in Ames, Iowa on Nov. 19, 1862. His father William was from Perry County, Pa. If any one can help me with this I"d appreciate hearing from you.

From what I gather, the Perry Co. "sunday" family were originally "Sontag". At least, I have a bunch of Sontags in my ancestry that moved to Perry Co and eventually turned into Sundays. I haven't done very much research at all yet on the Sontag/Sunday Perry Co folks, but I'm pretty sure that a William will pop up. Didn't know there was a famous evangelist named Sunday. - Julie __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! News - Today's headlines http://news.yahoo.com
