  1. Would love to know more about Elijah Phillips. My ancestor Margaret Phillips Drury born 1809 in Ohio, is connected somehow as dna shows.

  2. Virginia “Jennie” James was married to John J. Gallion and they were my great-grandparents. I remember my grandmother had “step-brothers and sisters, sometimes referred to as “half” siblings. So, I’m not sure if it was John or Jennie who married multiple times. If anyone has information about this branch of our family, I’d like to connect. Thanks
