Dear Carol, My great great grandmother was Elizabeth Merritt who married Thomas Ensign Chilson..I have been trying to find her birth place ( some say it is Scituate, Mass.) Their daughter Phyla married Thomas Earl Alway. My grandmother Rebecca Alway was born in 1870 in Little Rock, Ark..I know that Elizabeth died in Baton Rouge, LA. shortly before that. I also can not find where Phyla was born...I have tried to follow possiblities...but nothing. There is a researcher (last name is Merritt) in Pomfert, Vermont, who may be able to help. If I find out anything, I'll pass it along...Several people have mentioned your name about finding out information on the Merritts and Chilsons. I hope that you can help me out with more information on Elizabeth and Phyla...thank you, Helen Drake
