Hi Tosca, Is Adrian Swart of interest to you?? I am from the Wesley Jenkins line of Loudoun VA.? But in our family papers I've come across several pictures, one of Adrian Swart (we thought it was spelled Schwartz).? They are suppose to be family members to us, but I don't know what the connection is.?

Alice, Perhaps you could post whatever you have on the lawsuits of Adrian Swart to the list? It would help at least two of us. Thank you.
