Hi List,
I am new to this list and have really just started researching my Carey/Cary
line, although it was a Carey lady that originally got me interested in
genealogy, almost five years ago now.
Harriet Carey's Bible was given to my son, Harriet's great great grandson,
and it was some time before I decided to research her family tree. I have
just recently discovered another generation, Harriet's great grandfather
Reuben.
