19 June 2000 Dear Patterson, Thank you for the information regarding Paul Pyle's who live in Ohio! Unfortunately, I live in Indiana, and I haven't the slightest idea where the Paul Pyle I met in 1967 lives (or lived). He may be long dead. I assume he was a cousin or nephew of my grandfather. I met him at my grandparent's house. To my knowledge, it was the only time I ever met him, although I may have met him earlier when I was much younger. I don't remember. I have been on vacation for two weeks, so I am just now finding your message. Sorry for not responding sooner, but I didn't even take my computer with me! Anyway, thank you for your reply! Regards, Michael Pyle -----Original Message----- From: Patterson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, June 06, 2000 10:22 AM Subject: Re: [PYLE]Michael and the tree in ohio >Hey Michael, I found listing for the following Paul Pyles in Ohio.
