Hi, seems like you have a bit of a mixup, I am sure some of our most
talented will help you out. What I would like to know is if you have
any information going waaaaay back to Thomas Whitney b 1600 and Mary
Roach! We have information from some cousins and the FHC that they are
the parents of my Henry Whitney 1620 Herts, Eng. Other cousins say not.
Do you have positive info? Allan, I know this is a sore subject with you
so you do not need to bother with it again. Just looking for some fresh
outlook on this. Like I said we are all searching for the truth. Barb
Oliver has them listed as Henry's parents also. Well, hoping to hear
something more to add to the Roach contraversy on Henry's parents :)
Thanks, MAL
