This name came from information sent by Rob Appleton. Page heading reads... Note: This newly typed letter (1990) is derived from a typed copy which may have been recorded by Oville Evans (perhaps in the 1950's?). She undoubtedly had the original letter and wished to preserve its information. At the end of the letter were type continuing genealogy notes, which follow in addition, I have listed the names of ancesters mentioned in this letter. [Christine McLean, 1990]
Original letter written by Samuel Paisley [1773] to his nephew Samuel Paisley [son of John 1764]. [Samuel was 77 years old at trhe time of the writting.
