    3. Barbara, Thanks for pointing out the corrections for me. I have doubled checked my sources and will have to contact one of them for enlightenment! This is not my direct line, so I have not studied it very closely, and really appreciate any corrections! 1. The entry showing Elizabeth Harris as a 2nd wife of Robert Milton Brown, Jr. can only be explained by a) a bad merge of gedcom files, or b) gremlins! My master source, M. June Harris' gedcom, shows only one marriage for RMB, Jr.. 2. Re the children of John Riley and Nancy Allen, I again checked my source (usually impeccable) about these children born 4 months apart! The one which appears to be correct is Mary Jane "Jane", per the Christian Chapel Cemetery listing on the Henderson County GenWeb page (under Stevens, with husband John C. Stevens). Jane's brother, William, was buried at the Greener Cemetery in Henderson Co., but there is no listing of the individual names on the GenWeb page, so, for the time being, we will assume his is the birth date which is incorrect. My source has a photo of his headstone, so will check with her and hope she has her records with her at her new job! Back to you on this later! 3. Every source I have checked (7 of them) on the "Lela/Lena" difference shows "Lela" Hendrix Evans Hays! One source shows "Lelia", but the headstone listed under the "Hays" section of the Decaturville Cemetery does indeed show "Lela". Now this is a true case of gremlins! Cannot explain it otherwise! 4. Now for a question: I show Betty Eubanks Harris Dodd as "Eva Elizabeth "Betty" Eubank". Is there, or is there not an "s" on the end of the name? If there really IS, then I also need to talk to M. June Harris (my source) on this as well. Strangely enough, I have 13 Eubank's in my file, none with the "s" on the end. Do you think maybe the "13" caused the gremlins to attack? <Grin> Thanks again for the help. Will be contacting June Harris as soon as you let me know about the Eubank/Eubanks question. Marj Ferris
