    3. Yes, Mike I would like a copy of the chart, It probably would cost more that $2.00 tho, as mailing costs also, so I will add that on when I send the money. My address is Bobbie Reihsen 4021 Cambridge Circle Jefferson City, MO 65109-5735 Hope it has John in Scotland to Robert in England and then the 4 brothers coming to US. I have researched so much and the only information out there is your line. The other lines seem to not be interested in genealogy. You are right, going past 1850 would just be lots of extra paper and not related to my line. The trouble with genealogy is that so many of our dedicated genealogists and family historians disappear from our lives. I am afraid of losing them, as they were so knowledgeable and kind and willing to share. Thanks for sending the pages, shall I wait to get them and return the payment using the address on the envelope?
