Hi Tracey:
Thanks ever so much for sharing.
My sister, Nancy Eleanor Winter is married to one of your ³cousins², George
Thulbert ³Fred² Varner¹s grandson, Neil Roy Varner from Diligent River.
The Varner, Baker, Hahnen & McCully connections are slowly coming together;
just one visit to the Archives and I should have it mostly sorted out as to
who¹s who in surnames to be able to jump forward another generation in my
program.
Have you ever come across a Lloyd Varner in your Varner Genealogy research
other than the Lloyd Murray Varner who died 28 Dec 2009? This Lloyd Murray
Varner was never married.
I¹m curious if the Lloyd Varner mentioned below is related. Nancy & Neil
don¹t know.
Dave
