Hi. I just discovered this week that William Henry Yater is my 4th great-grandfather. I had been blocked for years in finding the parents of America Jane Layton, daughter of Thomas Layton and Josephine McMillen, granddaughter of William Layton and Mary Ann Yater...and Mary Ann was William Henry Yater's daughter. If you need descendants information in that direction, please let me know. Otherwise, thanks so much for posting information about these ancestors...and I'm glad to meet new cousins!
