My question with regards to your sister's research would be what was it, what were the sources? I'd love to see the primary sources so I can connect John L with other lines. Do you know if she had birth certificates or other records showing Mary's parents and their birth places? I've heard from lots of people who say they are somehow related through John L's father Michael's side but no one has named the siblings. I really would love to find cousins but everyone has had stories so far but no one has shown any primary sources yet.
