Date: 16:01 3/22/02 Just a note - I am not much use on the US side - I would like to help but I have not researched the US families in detail. Comments that I might make kindly are:
Perhaps our US cousins could try and narrow things down to a more limited number of family line sources at time of emigration and then collectively hunt out information on these original settlers. Some have already done this and forgive me if I seem presumptious. Questions like "Looking for Charles Caldwell married to Jane Smith b Appaloosa County" seems a bit like randomly firing a shotgun in the air and hoping to hit a sparrow. Luckily we are all out here to try and help one another. A bit of original research at the local library or historical society or from some web-trawling reported on this site (with sources) is an invaluable help and very much appreciated by all. |
