Would you mind doing a look-up for me? Nellie Simonton was a known
researcher of my CARLON/CARLIN line, and I would be quite interested in
knowing more about her book (which I did not know existed). I would be
interested in anything she might have to say about the CARLON, SIMONTON,
McCANDLESS or STOUGHTON families.
Could you tell the list anything the book might have to say about
the author? Thanks.
