This is what I have on this but I am still working on parents of all
Johns right now. This line seems to have some problems like too many
families claiming the same Thompson will in Maryland and too many John
and Susanna's.� I've unhooked all the older Johns right now and I am
going back to the primary records to see what I have.� Donna
