Dear Sue,
You sent me flying through my records, many are not on computer, but I
don't seem to to have William D. anywhere. I know without a doubt that
we connect, but though Gafford is a rare name, there are so many of them
in early Butler Co. history.

I'm decended from Jerimiah Gafford. He and his four brothers all settled
in Butler Co. in or before 1814 and raised large families of nine to
eleven children. I find several Williams and will continue to look for
William D. and his wife Martha Missoura Ann Morris, marriage date 14
Dec, 1860. (Is this correct?)

I'll get back to you with what I find.

Reguards, Mary
