Maybe I am just a cranky old lady, but it gets my goat to see so many long emails with out names and places and at least some indication of time element. I like something to get my teeth in and say "hey that is the person that lived next to my ancestor, signed his will, was listed as a buyer of the estate sale for the probate. The smallest clue will sometimes give you a great connection to exchange info. Good luck in your research and maybe this will spur other researchers to do as you have.

The states or Countries listed are where in the family began, or I should say where I have traced them to mostly far from where they began. AYERS/AYRES--Mass. & New York MUNN--England BEEBE--Conn. ASH--Virginia WARD--Virginia BAKER/BECKER--Germany STEWART--Pennsylvania WELLS--Pennsylvania ZENER/ZENOR--Germany MILLER--Indiana ? THEOBALD--Germany HAEHL--Germany PETTIGREW--Indiana ? KUHN--Germany SWINFORD--Indiana ? LAIRD--Vermont WERTZ--Germany LAWRENCE--South Carolina GARRINGER/GERRINGER--Germany COLVIN--Kentucky McINTOSH--Conn. And many more. Some of my brick walls, are John Stewart born around 1776 in Pennsylvania, it turns out Stewart's were all over Pennsylvania, and finding the family of Sarah Ann Ward born 1797 in Virginia. Anyone out there working on the same Surnames? Sheila Kell
