Diane, Thanks, for your reply. I'll pass this on to my husband's male Slagle cousins, sons of a male Slagle, a son of Samuel Boles Slagle (1859-1939) a son of Joseph Slagle (1818-1888). My husband's mother was a daughter of Samuel Slagle. Hope his cousins go with this. I'll check with you. Thanks for the invite.
