Dora, Thanks for your reply and information. I'll give it a try. The information that they didn't have were the parents. So I would imagine that they would want to know that. I was very happy to have there information on my line (Brown) along another line I have a friend whose maiden name was McKinstry (I live in Roanoke, VA.) Would you mind if I gave her your address to make contact with you or would you prefer to have her info and you make contact?

Well, maybe.... let me know what they say! Could depend on whose parents; I'm not usually interested in parents of spouses, for example. But some people really can't be convinced that they have ancestors more than so far back. I run into it constantly in tracing my autosomal DNA matches.
