another reply to rasberry. I looked up my info on your Vestal - here's what I have (of course subject to correction!) Solomon S Vestal born abt 1831 NC m. Mary C Pendry born abt 1836 children: Silas H abt 1857 Jesse S abt sep 1859 Susan J abt 1861 John H abt 1862 William C abt 1864 Nelly E abt 1866 Sarah I abt 1869 Mary E abt 1870 Miles A abt 1871 Andrew abt 1872 Hilary B abt 1874 Martha G abt 1876 Eugene W abt 1879 I'm really hoping my Henry is also a member of this family. He was born abt 1860 so it's possible!
