Hi, If you come across a Rev. Luther Parker Russell. I can help you out a little. He was b. Sept. 17, 1863/64 and in 1880 was still in Norfolk, Va. By 1925 he lived in Vallejo, Calif. He was the brother of one of our ancestors. I don't know where Vallejo is located but his family lived outside of San Francisco. Clare Pebworth -------------- On Mon, 6 Jan 2003 13:04:44 -0800 "E.
