Folks, I apologize for sending 5 emails of data, especially for those not interested in the Carper line... But I think I see evidences of unification in the Carper Lines, of which, I believe, though it was suspected Nicholas was the ancestor of all, it was not generally proven to be so. At least I *think* I see evidences of this. Please send corrections (trying to give a reasonable source to establish changes), and any additional data, images, etc., that you care to share with me. No, I am not writing a book on the Carpers, and have no aspirations in that direction. If I were to write a small book, it would be of my Fitzgerald Line in PA and NJ. No, I am just seeking to establish this line (with much more than my wife's own direct family) because there were apparently coexisting lines that no one ever showed any unification in. Sorry if my sentences are a little obscure. It is not easy to word things perfectly on this subject. Good hunting, Vince Summers
