Thank you. One more thing, there was a story that my grandma born 1889, came to see her cousin or half brother William or John or James; however, when she arrived her letter notifying him of her pending arrival was still in the mailbox as he passed away before she could get there. She had a child born in 1914 named John StJohn from her first marriage; her husband was killed in the war of England I believe. She was from Peterborough originally and came to US via Canada..I'm sorry I don't have all the names correct. Thanks, Debbie

Anyone know about this family? Cecy Rice Will of a Henry REED in Guilford County in 1789. I am hoping it is my family but no proof.
