Hanks and Shipley researchers,
Here's an interesting connection from a Shipley Prespective to "our" Nancy
Hanks mother of Abraham Lincoln.

Wanda, this started out on hints of you having a Shipley line. Am
interested in your Shipley line. I have a direct descendant Van Buren Co.,
AR Shipley line I am interested in. And, several Shipley others know to
connect to my lines. Would like very much to have you download my gedcom
(leon10.zip/ged)at:
http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Plains/7046/
and see if you see anything that rings any bells on your Shipley line.

I haven's studied this Shipley/Hanks/Abraham Lincoln connection fully, but
will post back if anything rings any interesting bells. Anyone else see
something, please post back to the list.

Wanda, what do you think about these Shipley's??? Are they part of "Your"
Shipley line.

I am not sure how this web site data relates to our Hanks (i.e. if they
have our data), but, would like to have a confirmation of our Hanks line
matching up to this data at the web site. For you newbies (and oldies),
"our" Izard Co., AR Hanks line has been proven via this list to connect to
this same Nancy Hanks, mother of Abraham Lincoln.

Thanks,
Doug Leonard
