Received in today's US Mail, the 30-page booklet of
Curtis Sylvander ELDER (and Emma Jane Crawford) genealogy,
sent by Carol McCullough of Mercer Co PA.
So far, I just scanned 3 pages of photos.
Interesting that Carol McCullough
owns this book - as we are still trying to discover
how her ELDER family of Mercer Co PA matches the DNA
of both the GEORGE ELDER/SARAH VOGAN
and the FRANKLIN CO PA descendants.
She also owns the DAVID ELDER/MARGERY STEWART booklet.
I posted a new webpage here with scans of the photo pages:
