Sue. I too am having connection problems, combination of melting snow and antiquated phone lines, but scans received OK, excellent! I am sure these are my people, wonder what happened to brother James and the 2 children, hard times. The more I look at it I'm sure Thomas 1812 belongs to John Cottier. Went yesterday to my local FHC, they would like me to see their researcher on Thursday before ordering any films. Again thanking you for your help. Alan
