No, I haven't any proof to tie her to John at all. One of the old folks long ago told me they thought she might possibly have been John's daughter, but she could be a daughter of Alexander. Have you ever found anything that would help us document who her father actually was? Was Alexander living near Andrew LaFever Sr.? Celia was my ggg grandmother, so I have a vested interest in getting correct info on these people.
