Hi John, Thanks for the website info. I'm sending my Varney info back to James Varney (far as I go so far). I'll be in touch if I dig up more.
My Uncle Vernon is looking into what he can find on Albert. Vernon is the last of Joe Varney's children still living. He'll be 75 tomorrow. Joe

Joe, My website is: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=jwetzel
It may be the same information you saw at Ancestry.com. I'd still like to see what you've got on Albert and Emily going backwards in time. You've filled in a number of blanks going forward, I think you could do the same going backwards. I hope the site helps.
