Larry -- Thanks for the clarification; I will correct our information. We (I -- John is overloaded with other work right now) are beginning additional work on generation 6 and I would appreciate any information you may have on Stephen's children. Is Ollie (Vick) Hines still alive? I have tried to contact her in the past, but received no reply. I know she gathered a good bit of information directly from descendants of both Stephen and Isaiah. While some of her work on Isaiah's descendants (as reported in her book) is not completely accurate, a lot of it is just wonderful. That's one of the problems in publishing your work, people find your mistakes! (I'm joking folks -- sharing and learning is what this wonderful pasttime of genealogy is all about.)
