    --The second correction you could make is about my Uncle Will and Aunt Harriet’s family. Their children are listed as son’s Steven and David. Info about Steven is OK; but Will was not David’s father - although I have no information about who was. Because these details have been controversial (having caused David to avoid the family after he discovered it as a teen ager) and I don’t have the full information (since Will and Harriet died and I have been unable to contact Steven for 2 years), I think it may be best to keep your account as is - to protect living relatives who may be upset by uncertain details.
