Reta, in addition to Hilda and Mary being daughters of Henry and Alice,
there's also Minnie. I think her actual name was Minerva. I only met her a
couple of times but I know she existed. Did you know Hilda and Mary? They
were wonderful women -- very different from each other, but each amazing in
her own way.

Here are the children for Hilda:
Louise, married James Wayland. Children are Susie, Jimmy, and one other I
can't remember. I'll ask my sisters and get back to you if you're
interested.

Here are the children for Mary:
Frank Christ, Robert Christ, and Mary Ann Christ Chitester. Bob and Mary Ann
are dead. Frank is still alive. They had three children each. I know this
line much better, being one of the children. I can give you details if you'd
like.

It was strange to find this e-mail in my box, since I was the author (over
two years ago) of the original message regarding CHRIST and BROCIOUS. I
somehow got dropped off the list for awhile and never received the
responses
that were apparently sent to me. Anyway, the Christs for which I am looking
are just Jefferson County residents, so far as I know. My family lives in
Brookville and the surrounding areas. My BROCIOUS family is from the
Ringgold area. My grandmother's parents were Henry and Alice Brocious. If
anyone has any information on any of these people, I'd love to have it!

Janet,
It's been awhile since I received the following in my inbox, but I am
currently cleaning out all my old mail and came across this. I am wondering

if you could look in your Berks County church records for the surname of
SOWERS. I can't seem to find where my SOWERS line came to Jefferson county.

I just have my great great grandfather's, Benjamin SOWERS birth year-1803
and that he came from another county from the east. Could you check this
surname for me and let me know what SOWERS names you can find? I have a
Benjamin and Jonas and a Henry but can't seem to connect them. Thanks so
much
Nancy Alexander
