If you are Michael Thorton from Montana and you visited our Uncle Nick (Warren) in Encinitas, CA in Sept 2003, please contact me for family history information. Regards-Janet Frazier

Hi: My name is Sharon Porter Moxley. My grandmother Blanche Doers was a sister of Grace Cleary. I remember Grace. She had her leg cut off because a doctor who had just come from a blood poison case had lanced her leg and infected it. She was a very intelligent, venturesome lady full of good cheer.

I think the Michael you refer to is one of my cousins. The last name was spelled Thornton. He had a brother Theodore. I used to play with them as a child. I have lost touch with them but I know the Thornton family very well because Vernon, father of Michael and Teddy, and his brother and sister all married into the Griffith and Doers families.
