Received the following inquiry direct to me:
"I am a direct descendent of Aquilla through Erasmus. My family came to KY
and has lived here since 1850's along with the Veaseys and the Coopers.
I have never been able to ascertain Aquilla's birthplace. Do you know it?
Any other infor. would be appreciated."
Myra Bourland
Aquilla is not my line, if anyone can help Myra please contact direct.
