Hi Judy,
I don't have an Ancestry membership so I can't access your contact email easily. But my connection is that Eunice Van Valin who married Ralph Mc Gill is my 3rd ggfather's sister. Descendents of both families traveled from WI to NE together. I have been working on the trees of his siblings for some years. I'd be interested in the info you have gathered. I'm also in contact with a "cousin" who is a direct descendent of this line who I think would be interested as well.
