Sorry if I went outside your protocol. Most lists don't want private and specific discusions clogging up their mail. Nor do I need to be buried under lots of Raynor information except for the one individual I asked about. Anyway, I did find one connection, and here is all that has transpired. My intention was to next ask him if he had any details about her surprisingly long life, and whether he is aware of fuller documentation such as an obituary. I also would be interested in seeing what he has on her husband. Paul LeValley wrote: > > Here is all I have on Sarah LeValley Raynor: > > SARAH (RAYNOR) > > b. 1833 NY > m. Charles Lewis Raynor (s.

How much do you want? Thanks very much, Paul, for the information. That will suffice for now, and I am deeply grateful to you for it.
