Carol, thank you for the extra information on Charles and Louise Coulter.

The suggestion in your second paragraph is brilliant. Thomas S’s grandfather William the weaver came to the States as a widower. I think that Margaret Hughes is his second wife, and therefore a step-grandmother to Thomas S Joughin. I am assuming that the first record in Lois’s posting on July 22 at 3:53 a.m. related to her.

Are you the Carol that I have been corresponding with, whose surname Pamina uses to describe Monostatos… “verlangte Liebe”… (if that’s not too obscure)?
