This is it, hope this helps someone add to their list of names. Also do not take these dates at the absolute truth Please do your own homework as this is an old copy of a genealogy and very hard to read. It is a great reference however and I have found in my own experiences and checking headstones in cemeteries that the info appears to be fairly accurate. There are some errors but that is to be expected considering he didn't have access to the wealth of information we do today back in the earliest 1900's when this thing was written. Good Luck in your own searches. Happy 2000 !!!
