Hi Joyce,
I have just visited some of your sites. You are doing an excellent job.

I thought that I had observed a link to make additions or corrections but can not find it now. I am a descendant of Rev. Earl Rumsey of the Simon line. An entry for Josiah V. Rumsey, buried in the Westbrook Cemetery, Van Etten, Chemung, is in error. He is the son of George W. & Rachel Ann Steenburgh. Dates for Emma Rumsey Swartout in the Hicks Cemetery, Baldwin, Chemung are 16 May 1862-Nov 1884, two years after her marriage.

I correspond with Jean Rumsey quite often. I called her earlier this week and she is fairing quite well. Her 90th birthday is 24 May 2002.

Thanks for all th good work.

Douglas Rumsey
