I've been collecting a lot of data on the Atkins, Monroe, Booker families for some time. Still come up with some questions, but do have over 4,000 descendants of Louis, and over 400 on his brother & sis-in-law Richard who married his wife's sister Mary (nicknamed "Polly"). There were apparently 15 children in that particular Monroe family, so the families very quickly were related to everybody one way or another. Karen In a message dated 5/1/2010 10:16:48 A.M.
