Debbie, I hope the addresses will help. Would you send me you direct line relationship to Joseph Avery (kinda like my outline below.) James Avery and Diana Scott have alot of information assembled on the Averys, and I'd like to see where you're at or where you fit in. My line is as follows: 1-Joseph Avery=>wed Nancy Ann Berry 2-Cynthia Ann Avery=>wed John H. Bruner 3-Mary Jane Bruner=>wed John W. Wise (then Montgomery) 4-Millie Maude Wise=>wed Albert Arthur Henderson 5-Thelma Lucille Henderson=>wed Orville Martin (then Ruffner) 6-Bettly L. Martin=>wed Edward M. Raschke 7-John S. Raschke I hope this helps. Best regards, John
