I hope this is correct. I will send this information to you complete with births,marriage & death dates in the future if this is what you would like to continue the family lines. Many Thanks for this website I know the work it must entail. Your cousin somewhat removed Enid C.Othmer Harlow Email deharlow@globalserve.net
