Dear Mrs. Nelson,
I do believe we might be cousins. I have to check my records when I get home, but I'm pretty sure that my great-great grandparents are the Jesse Miles Berrong and Margaret Wade Corn of which you write. I have photos of them.
I do believe we might be cousins. I have to check my records when I get home, but I'm pretty sure that my great-great grandparents are the Jesse Miles Berrong and Margaret Wade Corn of which you write. I have photos of them.My grandfather, their grandson, is William Berrong, son of Miles Berrong (I think) and Blanche York, He could be your first cousin. He and his sister, my Aunt Lillian, grew up in Atlanta.The story you relate of Henri Napoleon & his brother being kidnapped is the same story I've grown up on. I recall hearing that the brothers were kidnapped from the Alcace-Lorraine region. I don't know about Dutch extraction. My great-aunt, has documentation of an Henri Napoleon in our geneology.
