just checking in to see what's going on here & saw ann's post about geneology. i've been interested in that too. we've always known we were related to the famous hatfield clan of the feud. my mom's old family Bible was passed down to me with the family tree in it going back about 6-7 generations. my sister in virginia called me a coupla months ago about wanting know some dates on a coupla ancestrors & i dug it out, found who she was wondering about but i was shocked to see my mom had the tree all filled out but she put absolutely no dates in it!! i found the tie-in to the hatfields, a clara lusk hatfield. that would mean she married into the clan. about 2 weeks later, i was doing some google research on the hatfields after something i saw on on tv. i was googling all the ancestors on that tree & i found clara! found out something surprising. my beloved mother made a huge error in the tree. the name was Clara HATFIELD lusk, not Clara Lusk HATFIELD! which means that we are more blood to the hatfields than we all thought! her maiden name was Hatfileld, her married name was lusk!
