On the FAY side, no Eliakim, Lorenzo, Lovina, or Adelaide, and the only Hannah is excluded by date (years 1875 and 1891). However, there is the following: FAY, Roxana S., residence "n/a", probate district Windsor, type Guardianship of a minor, year 1833, pages 3-5 That might bear closer examination. Hope it turns out to be of some use. Darrell Darrell Allen MARTIN a native Vermonter currently in exile in Addison, Illinois [email protected] www.darrell-martin.net/genealogy/
