Thank you, Valerie, for all the additional information. I keep meaning to provide a more detailed reply and enter all your data in my database, but I am just not getting to it. I did want to thank you and respond to a couple of points.

First, I think it is so cool that Nellie's middle name is Bly! Where did you find that piece of information?

Second, in regard to the 1887 birth date for Nellie, I include it to be complete, but I am certain that it is wrong. It is what one would get from her age given in the 1930 census. I am guessing that she said that so she wouldn't appear to be older than her husband (I've run across that more than once before). But it is definitely her in that census, as she is with her second husband, A.E. MALLORY, who was my great aunt's stepfather.

Third, do you know who Benjamin HEADINGTON's father is?

Fourth, do you mind sharing your sources of information with me? I am especially curious where the "Bly" comes from. My sources can be found in my Worldconnect database at

Lastly, I will convey your email to my cousin, but I cannot guarantee that he will contact you. He's a bit eccentric and his interest fluctuates a great deal.

Thanks again and if I can get out from under things, I will post a more detailed response. Take care.
Alice
