Pat,

I agree that there is a lot of fluff out there (errors) - I took the
information from two credible volumes. Evelyn Guard Olsen devotes lots of
material to her ancestor William H. H., son of Cornelius Ward Friend & Sarah
A. Kemp (Pg 161) & ref to Children (Pg 162 bottom & 163 top). Also the
information by Keith O. Gary is accurate beyond a doubt. You proved that
my information was correct and went beyond to prove that you and Jo in PA
are correct as well. I'm the one who mailed you the index. The information
you seek is on C1, Letter I.....C1 & C2 are the only list of photograph
pages.
