Erlene and Laura,

Could you contact me direct? I have Stokes, Francis Edna, Isom C, but no
Plutine. I have Elizabeth (no surname) being born in 1800, was she a second
wife of Stokes who was born 1759? I have some information I would like to
share to see if we can figure out the business about Stokes being born in ca
1759 and marrying Elizabeth Jul 26 1865. I have Elizabeth b. ca 1800.
