Hello Nicole,

First, I want to know.....please email me the Part 2 of this line.

Part 1 ..... WOW!! As I got to reading the descendants of Ruben Redman from the 1850 Census for Shelby Co., Ohio I said "I know these people!!!!"

The triangle of Piqua (Miami), Sidney (Shelby) & Urbana (Champaign), Ohio is the 'home place' of my maternal lines. I was born in Piqua, my grandfather, Urbana and my mother, grandmother & great-grandmother were born in Shelby County, Anna in Dinsmore and Rumley in Van Buren Twp. A circle with no larger than a 25 mile radius. Our ancestors were neighbors in Shelby County and I knew the Lett & Redman families in Piqua.

Ain't this sumpin' I've been following your Redman/Redmond postings from PA for quite sometime now and we finally make the connections.

Continuing my 'cluster' research I can now comfortably add the additional links to the Redman, Douglas(s), Stillgess lines already in my database, with your permission of course.

Thanks ever so much Nicole,

Art Thomas
