Rosemary,

I don't know what the population of Pico was like back several
generations ago, but I come from Gloucester. As does my mother (Helen
Mae Rose) and based on that I would say the odds are very good that
there is a connection.

I will send what I have over to the List, just in case there might be
others too.

hoping to hear back,

Ron
ps. sorry about the length of the report
