Hey Carol,

Great to hear from you, it's always nice to meet new cousins, no matter how distant. I didn't have any info above Josephso that's interesting. I'll have to have a look at that. I do have John and Mary's daughter Mary on my tree, but I didn't have her husband or children so I'll add that information to my file. That's good, she was the only one I didn't have a spouse or children for.

For Joseph and Sarah I have children: Elizabeth and John. For John and Mary I have children: John, William, Mary, Sarah and Henry.

I met one man at our reunion named David Benn whose ancestry comes from the same general area but is a different line but with a couple of common surnames, not unusual with a small population. He sent for a dna kit a couple of weeks ago so I'm looking forward to seeing if he has a match with my brother's dna sample on the site when it eventually gets done. I expect there will be a match even if it's a 4th or 5th cousin.
