Hello Marie, Your name caught my eye, being connected to Grubb & Laster, as this is my Aunt Eva Laster Harris's maiden name & her Mother was a Grubb. I e-mailed, her granddaughter, my second cousin, Debbie Scroggs, of the simularities. She informs me that you are also her cousin & named for her mother, Marie Harris Scroggs, wtih comment of small world. : ) We are no blood kin that I know of, but nice to know a cousin that was named for my dear cousin, Marie.. If your grandfather was Dave Woods, I believe he went to school with my Mother, Edith Gertrude Bledsoe (b) 1910, VA Mary Harris Carey MCarey9595@cs.com (Houston TX) In a message dated 5/19/02 2:54:57 PM Central Daylight Time, VALEE-D-request@rootsweb.com writes: << Date: Sun, 19 May 2002 15:34:51 EDT From: Oaks5@aol.com To: VALEE-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <162.df786b9.2a19585b@aol.com> Subject: [VALEE] Surnames Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" My wonderful surnames are the following: WOODS LASTER GRUBB RUSSELL BALL Marie up in ND >>
