Dear List: I am reposting this message of 3 Jul 1999 since I have changed ISP since then. Now ave@mediaone.net, not ave@datablast.net. Hi List: I am looking for the parents of William Payne, born in CT (Census) who married Adelia Gillett b. 1820 in Windsor, m 1836 in East Windsor, CT. They were in Windsor OH by 1842 when daughter Celicia was born. She married in 1868 James Eugene Smith of Hartford CT who is my great-grandfather. I have Adelia's line back to the settler Jonathan Gillett, but am stuck on William's parents. Have names of William and Adelia's children from Census, but no details, and would appreciate hearing from anyont who is working with this line. Averill
