This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: AUSTIN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/AgB.2ACE/253.1.1 Message Board Post: I descend from Pleasant, William, John Riley, John Luther AUSTIN'S. I've been told that the book "History of Scotts Hill" , says Pleasant is only half brother to Charles AUSTIN? But I can't find any other evidence to that fact, everything else lists them as brothers. My AUSTIN line (John Riley AUSTIN) migrated to Dunklin County, Missouri in the 1870's. I would love to swap what info I have with you. Thank you for responding! Theresa
