Yes!!!!! Shem was my great uncle.

Hi Sheila, Would be interested in comparing notes on your Sawyers family. I'm helping some friends of mine with their genealogies, etc and the husband has Sawyers that go back several generations and have connections with Childers also. Do any of your Sawyers have the first name of SHEM???

Lyndia, I sent corrections to the info you had, an Ahnentafel Report, and a Pedigree Chart to your personal e-mail address in attachments. I can also send a few photos but need to know if you received the files okay prior to sending more. I don't want to overload you "in box".

Hi Sheila, Well, I'm just the messenger. I'm doing this research for the young couple who live in our carriage house. Nathanial SHEM Johnson moved in with us about 5 years ago and has since married Amanda. Wonderful young couple and a big help to us. (Long story there) Anyway, I working on their genealogies for them - they know that I'm an addict when it comes to genealogy!!! So I wrote down what they could both remember off the top of their head and started off!! Nate told me about his middle name of SHEM and that there were others back of him. The SAWYERS name is his mother's maiden name of course. She was Karen SAWYERS and is now Karen Johnson - Robert L. 'Rusty' Johnson is her husband.
