Arlene,

Nope, I didn't have a clue about Matthias Nolcox.

But, just to show how small this world really is and how this 6 degrees of separation thing seems to work I am fairly close friends with descendants of the Lyles Station, IN Nolcox family living here in Springfield, Ohio. I'll have to ask them if they knew of a connection to Matthias Nolcox.

Thanks,
Art
