Dianna,
Thanks for signing in the guest book. I just returned from a business trip to New Jersey for a week. Below is the info that I have on Margaret and her line. This is not my line but a Pettypool line and most of the data was collected before I knew or thought I knew who I belonged to. You may find more information if you follow the Pettypoole links on my web site. I believe the people listed below as sources who have mail addresses listed are no longer with us. The reference are from the early 1970's when my cousin was doing the research.
