    1. RE:
    2. John M. Poythress
    3. Mike, I don't have the records to say yea or nay on this one but Barbara Neal has this stuff memorized to the last whit and dab 'cause it's her crowd. I'm sure she will give you a first rate answer on it. And frankly I'd like to see Lewis' crowd all in the "same wrapper" to plug it all onto my FTM. How about it, Barb?

    2. Barbara P. Neal
    3. Great job Michael on compiling so many descendants for Lewis for us, all in one message. In response to Maynard's comments, I can readily confirm the dates & places you included for my ancestor James Edward Poythress (JEP), and all the info you included for JEP's descendants. (Maynard, since I'm in the middle of one of our 5-cities-in-6-days trips right now, I hesitate to even try to confirm the others' descendants.) Michael, I sure would appreciate it if you'd please talk me/us thru the specific sources that led you to list Lewis' ancestors "Lewis5 Poythress (Thomas4, Thomas3, Francis2, Francis1)." I greatly appreciate that you've no doubt concluded this from studying lots of info, and I know from your previous work that your conclusions would be solid for you to list this, so I'm just seeking clarification re which info led you to the listing <g> Thanks so much for all your good work.
