<DIV><FONT face=Papyrus>Hi Nancy, No I haven't to date even though Lydall does
bear some phonetic resemblance to Lightle. Are your Lydalls of
German/Bavarian/Swiss extraction having immigrated in the late 17's, very
earliest 18's? My name underwent some changes at entry into the US and not
uniformly across all family members (nothing as challenging as a puzzle with
lots of pieces missing in the box). That spelling does pop up with mine on
Soundex searches, I'll keep my eyes open.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Papyrus>Some of my easily traced Oregon ancestors included
Montgomery/Holloway by blood and Johnson/Stone by marriage (and plenty more to
be found). I've even tripped over some Hansens that come off my Father's
Mother's side. Ingrid</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
