Hello Nikki! I have four different lines of research that was given to me on the Eads lines. My eads was from WA. In 1992 I was fortunate enough to answer an ad for the Eads Family Foundation in Salt Lake City. Through them I found my Eads ancestors and also found out the CEO was my grandfathers second cousin! Give me a day or two to go through and look for your Irene. These people have almost 10,000 names in their data base and have published several books. You are allowed one free query in the newsletter and more with membership. The address: The Eads Family in America 2209 E. Carriage Lane # 39 Salt Lake City, Utah 84117 (801) 272-6514 They have members all over the world, a conference every year, the newsletter, and much much much more. I never new I woiuld get so much for my stamped envelope. I received a newsletter, 3 pictures of my grandfather in 1905 and his sister. ( never had a photo of him before) and a lifelong friendship. Please give them a try! Will get back to you soon. Valencia.
