Current projects

I am working with others on Albright DNA, we ordered a kit for a 91 year old Chet Albright, he descends from Jacob Albright and Rachel Brown, who we know was a child of Jacob Albright and Catherine of York Co. Penns. Of course my Jacob albright "Gunsmith" wife was also Catherine and many have connected Jacob husband of Rachel as a son of Jacob "Gunsmith". He is not, but could Jacob "Gunsmith" be an Uncle, we hope DNA might prove this.

Been working on McCord's of Dutchess Co. New York, circumstantial evidence would show that my Jane McCord born abt 1817 in New York is daughter of Joseph H. McCord and Noami Titus. Noami Titus being daughter of Gilbert Titus and Jane Hoag. The Gilbert Titus name comes down each generation ie; Gilbert Titus Duffy, Gilbert Titus Alexander, etc. to even current living relatives.
The believed brother of Jane McCord, is Gilbert T. McCord born 1820 New York who was living in Monroe Co. Ohio in 1850 where my Jane McCord Duffy was also living.
Gilbert T. named children Joseph H. McCord and Naomi McCord.

Also Bill Johnson who has done a great job on the Freeburns is talking about a Freeburn reunion in a couple of years, everybody bring pictures and information, and put together the Freeburn descendants. I am on board with that!
