Wow! I had heard from my mother that we had some half-siblings out there, but I never knew where to look. And I never could track down John Swanson, other than the one time I saw him back in 1999. He certainly had his share of problems. But Lester and Vada were great people. What's your name? It was really a pleasant surprise to hear from you. And anyone else on this thread interested in the Cline family. Evidently there was a man we can trace roots back to, who fought in the battle of Valley Forge in the Revolutionary War (I believe it was John Cline). And that is very cool if you ask me!
