'Course I know how large the families were! Try trying to trace them.. nightmare. 'Specially when everything matches but dates. But I'm trying to trace my dad's family, and I have several different DOB abd DOD for most members of the family, especially that far back, so I'm trying to cross reference as much as possible, and one of the periods puts one of my male relatives at 30-40 give or take 10 years.. and at Conn. (I think, don't have my stuff with me right now), and there was a delagate from there with the same name. it's more of a common name (both first and last. not john doe common, but enough for me to want at least 5 soures (preferably original documents) toconfirm.. rambling again, I know), hence all the cross referencing. now that I've rambled sufficiently.. maybe we should take this to "history lovers".. hehe
I'm going to check that site, now.. thanks for that!
hehe.. it was Jersey.. not Conn. other side of dad's family.
