VIRGENE: the bonney's have been of interest to me for a long time, as i
said. i have that line back to adam. the bonney's go back into about every
royal line in europe. but don't we all???? i was trying to get more info
going back on the lee's. philander is as far back as i go and while this
isn't a direct for me, i still do the sideways lines also, if i can get
them. thanks so much for all your help. i have been across that ferry
many, many times and i could have sworn it was called the m.h. lee. thanks
again.
gary in az.
