Thanks Margaret and Linda - there is so much knowledge on this list ready
to be shared with all! I’ve learned so much by watching and asking and I
hope I’ve been able to give a little help in return.
I wonder if I’ll discover that some of you are my cousins? That would be a

Thanks Margaret! I really appreciate the knowledge you share so generously.
Joanne: regarding the date, I believe that it's best to add a qualifier
("circa", "about", "probably"-- or similar) to the date so that it's

Joanne,
I've looked this over several times and believe the baptism date was left
