Dear Susannah, Our Abraham cousin, Corinne Winget, has a lot of information about the "Abrahams". She belongs to the Wynne-Genealogy. I hope you are well Corinne, and could add to Becky's. I will try to get some things about the "A's" soon. Right now I have a bad case of arthritis, hands included. Some days are worst than others, and limits my activities. Your mother supplied most of the information that I have, and then Corinne added some more. So glad you have joined us. Love Cousin Joyce Walker Quigley

Spurgeon John Spurgeon was awarded 400 acres in the "Glades" area east of Bruceton Mills WV for his service in the Revolutionary War. He was a friend of George Washington, and "Washington slept here" in John's house, along with his nephew Bushrod Washington, when they were on an exploring expedition between the end of the war and the establishment of the U.S. as a country, with Washington as president. Bushrod writes about that stay in his diary, and mentions crossing Sandy creek at Bruceton on a ferry operated by Spurgeon. Spurgeon's Glades farm was about 5 miles, as the crow flies, from Fort Necessity which is in Fayette Co. PA. At that time, before the Mason-Dixon survey, that was all the same territory. Washington had constructed Fort Necessity years earlier, in his only military defeat, when he was in command of Braddock's British troups that had attacked Fort Duquesne and were defeated by the French & Indians. Many of the people in that area can trace their lineage back to John Spurgeon & wives Mary Green and Mary Farmer. Your name "Benson" intrigues me. I grew up with many Bensons.

Dear Vi, Thank you so much for the tribute on Olema. I told Jim Bob today that Olema did alot of her research the old fashion way, not by a computer and she done it for 40 or 50 years. Olema butted heads with several over research and some of the findings, but she knew her genealogy. Olema will be missed.

Many of you will note this as just the passing of another person linked loosely with our Wynn reasearch group. But, I would like to speak to Olema's passing in another way - a sort of tribute. Olema came on our Wynn scene as a researcher who never came to one of our reunions - but she was always in sight. Olema represents one of the oldtime researchers. She went to research centers armed with pen and paper - early on there were no copying machines, and Olema hand-copied all of her early records. And, she had some important records, among them the copy of Alexander Murray's wedding records, written in his hand, that recorded many early Wynn marriages in Berks and Chester County PA. My own research was helped by this document - it contained the wedding verification for Warner Wynn, b. 1747, and Mary Abraham. I am forever greatful for her work. Not to get too sentimental! Olema and I had great debates on the various Isaac Wynns - one of whom is buried in MN d.1880, b. @ 1782. We never could agree on whether he was the son of Thomas Wynn, b. 1750 or Warner Wynn, b. 1747. Maybe I'll get the Isaacs all straightened out and will report to Olema in another place.
