I am looking for info. re. Franklin Weaver (c.1850?). He came from Penn. He married Maria Bador. They migrated from Penn. to KS around 1875. They had two sons, William (b.

I am sorry I wasn't more clear on my reply that appeared in digest V98 #81. I was answering a request and sent it to the digest instead of their e-mail. I was letting the person know that I had some plotting maps. Sorry if this caused any problems. Sherry Smelley
