I have been trying to create a page for Benjamin at
www.angelfire.com/ar/pyeatt/BMP1779.html
I am trying to tie out the source records that I have for him and his
descendants (also for those of Jacob and Hannah) any help would be
appreciated. I was using DAR listings and cemetery information, so, I have
more blanks spaces than I do answers. If someone could give me a complete
list of children and spouses, for instance, I could match them up to the
source records for the event and would keep me from making too many "ass"ume
mistakes. Thanks, Marianne
