Any others including lurkers, that can trace ancestry at least ten
generations back with at least 30 year average per generation. Be their
ancestors ever so humble or as exalted as some of those already mentioned.
Of particular interest are those that can show position/occupation and
social standing over some of the period at least, for comparative
purposes. I realize some of this might be beyond the charter of SGM in the
strictest sense. If anybody is hesitant to post for this or any other
reason, please email me directly I am very interested in your responses.
