I've wondered about that, Adrian. I've also wondered how Edward Shannon Card
met his wife. I do know they lived in Maine for some years. Rachel Ann and
some of the children then moved to either NJ or NY. Edward Shannon followed
a little later and is supposed to have worked in NY. Don't know where they
lived during the time they were in NY or NJ and before they moved to TN.

I wonder what brought them to Monmouth NJ - were the Monmouth Cards
distant
relatives or is it just a coincidence that another Card family shows up in
the same place...?
