I am just now trying to start a family tree and ran across your post. I am looking for a Lorenzo James (Not sure on the middle name. He married my great great grandmother Bessie Harlin in Glasgow, KY. He also live in Kansas. I did run across a Gene Tatro who was a cousin to my grandfather William Alford Tatro who lived in Indiana (Jeffersonville) and Louisville, ky. Gene Tatro lives in Maine and here is an e-mail content he sent me: Hi Cousin Sandy:

You did a good job finding many items to fill in the blanks of your ancestry. But of course, as you know, there are still quite a few of them left. However, since most all of these blanks seem to be centered in Jeffersonville, I will try to see if I can obtain some actual records. It may take a while, as most city and county clerks don't look too favorably on genealogy requests!

You asked about me. Well, I'm an 87-yr-old WWII veteran of the Navy where I was a medic. While not serving on board any ship, I was sent to the state of Maine to give physical exams and take blook samples from all the draftees that were coming in. My family is is centered mainly in New England -- Vermont and Massachusetts in particular. Since your family (as you will eventually find out) was from Canada, Wisconsin, Kentucky and Indiana, our two families are quite far apart. My parents were Eugene Raoul and Ethel Ruth (Norton) Tatro.

I am not on Facebook -- I tried it, and all I got was a lot of useless garbage, so I quit it -- I don't need it!

By the way, may I remind you that when the time comes that I am able to send you your ancestral outline, I will need your postal mailing address. I don't use the Internet for privacy reasons.

Cousin Gene T : his e mail is etatro@redtroue.com Please let me know if this helps. My e-mail is sanwel11@yahoo.com Thank you and Good luck
