The Ohio link is a dead end. I actually got a hold of Daniel's Death certificate and it said he was born in Wales. My goal is to somehow find out when he came here. My guess is some time in the 1850's.

If you could contact me through my email davidaldinger@gmail.com. Communication will be faster. I would love to talk.

Betty Ann, I am your cousin Phyllis Johns Crane. Cecil was my mother"s brother. We met as children in Scranton before your family relocated to the D.C. area. I , too, am researching the family history. I have not seen any of the Pry offspring since Bobby's death. Several years back I tried to connect with Mary Lou. She wrote me a wonderful letter but , before, I could reply I had a house fire and the letter was lost. It would be nice to shed some light on the family history and possibly have a reunion of sorts. I am 68 years old now. My Uncle Bert Pry died in 1974 and my mother Mildred died in 1982. Our cousin Shirley Greene Davidson ( Lillian Pry Keith's granddaughter] lives about an hour and a half from me now and is a year younger than I. Dave the Swabian is related through the grandfather's. He, too, is on Ancestry.Com. I recently found Ann Carol (Carol) Van Orden Streeter.

Dave, this is Phyllis. We have communicated in the past. Fred and I have recently discovered some info; but, we are still checking it out. Elizabeth Pry married David J. Evans. Her daughter Anna married Edward Gilgallon. Thelma Gilgallon married Clarence Van Orden They had a daughter Ann Carol (Carol) who married a Streeter. Margaret Evans married Ralph Davison. Their children are Beverly and Elizabeth Jane (Betty Jane] who I believe married a Satterlee. Lillian Evans married .Edgar Thomas.The children were Lillian and Marilyn. Little Lilly married a Crowe first and then a Ciccone. Martha Evans married Clarence Brown. They had Clarence Jr. (Buddy), Jean Brown Shaffer (husband George), and Leslie ( Les). I do not know who the boys married. Jean Brown Shaffer lived with my mother Mildred Pry (daughter of George Pry & Mabel Piper Pry. Do you have Ethel Pry"s info?.She lived in Binghampton, Johnson City, N.Y. I believe she had a daughter Mabel. Mabel married ? and had one son. Maybe she was a Piper and not a Pry.. That may be the confusion The name Jones comes into play somewhere. Distant memories..
