Simeon and Matilda (Grover according to my information) are my 4th great grandparents. Their daughter Philanda married Erastus Howard, whose daughter Mary Ella married Charles Edwin Strickland, whose son Charles Edwin married Edna May Gonder. Their daughter Beatrice married Robert C. McDonald who are my parents now both deceased. I had not heard anything about Matilda, just saw that she was a "bound out girl". I have that she was born in 1808 but did not have month and day. Sorry I don't have more information but am pleased to find out more than I knew. So I guess we would be related somehow.
