    That looks like my list!
    nicely done lens, seems that the American genealogy is so much easier to do then my European ancestors.
    You know what one of the successes I had? I had a couple of people contacting me in Squidoo telling me they are related, one even had photos of my mom...incredible!

    I was so thrilled when I saw you used the Find a Grave website! I would like to think you learned about it from my article How to Find a Grave--but knowing your research abilities, I bet you knew about the website before I wrote about it! Great research on the Towers family!

    My wife and I met while researching our family histories, and I am working on a book right now about my grandfather, who was one of the last Cape Horners. This is especially interesting as I lived in Indiana (South Bend) for 12 years, and have always been fascinated by The Civil War. Looking forward to updates as you continue your research, blessed.

    Wow, this is going to be an interesting series. You're already uncovering some good stuff with the two Lydias. Love the map of where Abraham lived. I need to figure out how to do that.
