Ohhhhhhh, who's going to tackle this query???? Bertha, my line is parallel to yours except that we split with William & Patsy's children. I then follow John of 1811, then Welcome Giles, then Daniel Francis, the Mother Ruth Rainwater b 1901 d. 1988. Reason I answered with "ohhhh" is that recent data points, perhaps, to the fact that there were several James' and several William's in the late 1700's and early 1800's and all of us are trying to determine "who is which"...... Welcome aboard we would love to see your detailed family data. Hal, from Northern California! (Can I say that???) (^u^)
