Re: [COLBY] Abbie Colby
by Gordon Crooks@verizon.net
Alice: Alice was a very popular name in both Scotland and N. Ireland and
probably also in England too. Alice also has a Scottish nick name and it is
ALIES, this is what is on my 8th removed grandmothers tombstone and it took
me years to figure it out.A friend in England was the first to give me a
clue, then proof of the podding was the first 2 granddaughters were named
Alice and around 1765 we had, four living Alices, but grandma born 1700
passed away in 1775.
