Cousin Gracie; Didnt the name Toler come from the person who collected tolls at bridges in England ? That was a way of paying for the bridges Shelby

Shelby, I have no idea. Was hoping someone who has been researching longer than I have might know. I have come up with Edward Friend Towler who's father, Robert F. Towler was born in Virginia. Edward married Emogene Saphronia Satterlee. Emogene's brother, John Abram Satterlee, married my great aunt, Nancy Jane Hager. in Ks.
