Hello Donna, I'm just beginning a search of my father's history.We only know of his intermediate family and would love to know who the rest of us are. I do not know of any relatives in South Carolina. However, I am extremely curious being that the name is fairly rare. Any answers?

Correction!!! Donna, I do not know of any relatives in Charles, VA.

I have a cousin name Sharon your father's name wouldn't happen to be Henry. from New Jersey.
