You and I are from different ZUG lineages, but we are related via the
FLORY
lineage. Joseph FLORY's ancestors goes as follows:
Joseph J. Fleury & Mary ? (could possibly be CONRAD)
Abraham FLORY & Cathrine BLOCHER (possibly in my lineage)
Joseph FLORY & Elizabeth BEEGHLY (above)
I descend through Joseph's Uncle (Abraham's brother), Jacob FLORA.
I happen to be compiling a FLORA/FLORY book, and could use a whatever
you have on the
descendants of this Joseph FLORY. Could you possibly send a GEDCOM of
your ZUG lineage?
If you would, then I could just cut & past from it!
Elizabeth's brother, John BEEGHLY also married a FLORY, namely Susanna
FLORY, but don't have
any information on their descendants. You could really give me a big
jump if you submit it!
I will look forward to your reply!
After scanning the names further down your list, I would be at all
Surprise that we are
related in more ways than one!
Dear David,
I'll be glad to send you my GedCom, if you think it will help, but I
doubt it will. Sounds to me like you already have much more than I do.
Also looks to me like our lines diverge at the point where we connect:
sisters Elizabeth and Susanna. BTW John Beeghly was their
half-brother--different mothers. Most of my info came from the Bob
Bowman, Alice Beard, James Shuman trio.
What other names did you see where we might be related? We did end up in
the same corner of the world.
