Hi Janet,

Yes, it's a mystery. Searching Ancestry.com seems to favor Amos s/o
Lionel & Rebecca ROGERS. But I didn't find any children. Searching
on Liner (my 4ggf) does seem to favor Amos & Hannah TIMMONS as his
parents but no parents for Amos. Such a brick wall!

We are pretty sure that those of us who descend from Thomas BRANSON &
Elizabeth DAY (which we may or may not depending on Amos' parents)
started in ENG with Nathaniel BRANSON & Ann ?'s son William who was
b. in ENG but d. in NJ.

Yes I would love the info on Patrick WILEY and Catherine BRANSON. Thanks!
