Hi Roy, Thank you !!    I am glad some like it. From the 5 Eltonhead girls, which Martha is my grandmother, descends the Lee's from Virginia and President George Washington;  President James Madison ;  President Zachary Taylor, and several Supreme Court Justices of the United States of America and two Lee's that are signers of the Declaration of Indepenence plus Gouvenour Morris who helped in framing the Constitution of the United States of Aamerica, and Pres-elect Barack Obama.   Now, that is genealogy and '"not" politics. :)   Marianne Dillow   --- On Tue, 12/23/08, Hist Docs <gendocs@msn.com> wrote: From: Hist Docs <gendocs@msn.com> Subject: Re: [VACULPEP] Barack Obama Descends From Eltonhead Line To: vaculpep@rootsweb.com Date: Tuesday, December 23, 2008, 4:32 PM "King Harnuff the Obese" Yup ... that one's mine! :) Marianne, thanks for the info.
