As of today, 6-25-2020, I have deleted information I had posted regarding this person as Joe Crouch of Lexington, KY, has stated he has information that proves I am wrong - I am not interested in causing problems with him or anyone else regarding genealogy; I have many documented ancestors, my family history having been passed down to me both verbally and with documentation and I really don't need anyone proving to me "who I am" - I'm a very secure person, not easily intimidated by others, and don't feel it necessary to cause problems with Joe or anyone else.

Hoping everyone understands,
Della
