This family came from Kirkby Thore, Westmoreland, England in 1820, landing in Baltimore, MD. They settled in Lancaster Co., PA for a while, then spread out to other states. I have lost the trail on many of them and would love to find my missing cousins. I have a little of Robert's ancestry, some descendancy, and would be happy to share what I have.
