Patrick; I believe we communicated before and that you had been in contact with Bob McRae from Cochran, Ga. I don't have any information other than what we talked of before, but have arrived at an assumption that George Turner Pyle has to be a descendent of Susannah Turner Pyle. (My assumtions usually turn to fact, simply because I'm so dense, that by the time that something enters my mind it's old news.) The Pyle/Pile book has this family married to Elizabeth Cooke. Bob McRae and I had many discussions regarding this fact via the U.S. Postal Service (snail mail is becoming trite, so I'm reverting to the above. I like to be original at times.) Bob sent me many copies of the Pile/Pyle records from the LDS Family History Center trying to help me find my gggg-grandfather, but to no avail. I sent him a donation for helping me and never heard from him again. I hope that he didn't feel insulted, but the paper he sent me was worth what I gave . Keep in touch. By the way are you from Washington State?
