Ed you are wonderful!!!! I was shakin' the family tree last night after finding the first names of ancestors in the 1850 Census. I knew there had been a couple of books written on the COLEMAN's but had no names to search for. I put the title of one of the books in "Ask Jeeves" <A HREF="http://www.askjeeves.com/">Ask Jeeves</A> and what a treasure I found! Ancestors all the way back to 1625 arriving in this country in 1638! My poor printer had to be praying for a power failure! The most wonderful part is that the first 3 generations lived in the very same county that I do! I don't have any family in this area and didn't expect to find any ancestors here. It is indeed a very small world.............. I can see that this winter will be filled with trips to the library and old cemeteries looking for these newly found ancestors. Thank you so much for sharing this search engine that landed 6 generations in one swoop. Sherry Stone
