You have been great help. Family records of mine have listed Charles' first wife as Eliza Garden (not Gordon) thank you for the correction. My great-great-grandmother was his second wife, and their eldest (his 2nd) child was my great-grandmother, Mary Lauderdale LeSueur, born July 19, 1961, married Dr. Samuel George Harper, Oct. 19, 1885. She died Sept 23, 1957 and is buried in the Odd Fellows Cemetery (I think) in Georgetown, TX. You have given me a great deal of information, and corrected some errors. Thank you so much. I guess you could say we were related "one marriage removed". Bye for now, Linda On Sun, 02 Jul 2000 14:25:52 -0700 Ric <fdg@flash.net> writes: > Hope this helps.
