Dear List, I have three Sam Kirkland's in my database: 1. Sam R. Kirkland (1896-1965) -- son of John Vinus Kirkland (1857-1918) & MINNIE Martin (1869-1939). NOTE: His sister, MINNIE Lee Kirkland was born 28 Jul 1891. 2. Sam Kirkland -- married an unknown daughter of John Albert Snoddy (1864-1937) & Mary Ellen Renegar (1869-1948). An infant Snoddy was born and died in 1896. 3. Sam Kirkland -- married a Kathleen (maiden name unknown). They have a daughter MINNIE Katherine Kirkland born 26 Nov 1939. My hunch is that all three are really the same person. The name "Minnie" is very strong evidence to that fact. Would anyone have any additional evidence or proof that they are, in deed, one and the same? Thanks, Jim Danley Vista, CA
