Greetings fellow listers,
Recently, the name Lorenzo Dow has surfaced on two lists that I am on,
where families with all Irish or English first names end up with one
sibling named Lorenzo Dow -----(whatever). Turns out L.D. was a
travelling preacher in the early 1800's and no less than 20,000 children

were named after him! Here is a link to a web page on him in case you
have an elusive ancestor named L.D.
