Have ordered DAR files for Joseph Ames married to Constant Jones and their son Thomas who was married to X Hudson and Rebecca Fletcher. Have records that link Thomas to his son Gabriel who married Margaret Amiss. Their son James Amiss married ?1st wife Nancy Dent, 2nd wife Rebecca Tapp. Have many good records but would like know if anybody has record information about James Amiss being Gabriel's son. Also, there's some "unproved" information that says James Amiss was James Madison Amiss and was a Capt. in the War of 1812. Many thanks. A. Douglass
