Sarah I haven't seen those records,interesting I never put two and two together, that Susan passed away in Wales,makes sense that he moved to Pennsylvania without her.

I'll try to gather together what I have and send it to you, but my internet is shaky where I am right now, so it may take a few days.

Re: Florence ferch Jones
Hi again,
I see your tree on Ancestry.com and am trying to get to the facts, if such still exist, about Florence and her family. I note that you have posted a document "Ancestors of Mary Leech-- The Hayes, Lewis & David Families" that says, "Florence Jones arrived at Philadelphia on the ship Morning Star from Glamorganshire, Wales in November 1683." There is a citation '6' after this sentence, presumably giving the source of this information. Do you have the complete article and if so, could you tell me what '6' refers to? I always like to get back to the primary source, if at all possible, or at least the earliest citation.
Thanks,
Sarah
Mary's eldest child was John, born 8 May 1692. So far, so good!mace334 wrote: I curious if Mary had any sons and if so were any John?

Re: Florence ferch Jones
Good morning Sarah the information was written by a William Fetters,a distant cousin.William wrote several books on our family the book,pertaining to Florence and the morning star is ,William Fetters (1794 - 1857) and Mary B. Leech: Ancestors and Descendants (Six Columbiana County, Ohio Pioneer Families) Paperback.Mr Fetters passed away a couple of years ago.William's death is unfortunate,I would heaved loved to pick his brain. William supposedly spent years doing research on the Fetters ,Leech and Young line. Stephen

Re: Florence ferch Jones
Do you have the book? If so, could you check what footnote 6 refers to? I'm curious to find out where he got the information, so I can look at that source also.

Re: Florence ferch Jones
Okay, then I won't order it too! I look forward to hearing what you find out
I'll try to email you the image of Susanna's death record in a couple of minutes and hope the signal is strong enough here to get it sent properly. Hang on.
