Hi folks,
RE: Found more living DNA ELDER cousins for "FRANKLIN CO PA" group!
Shouldn't really have to test any of these ELDER descendants,
as I'm sure they will match my brother, the same as descendants of
"Samuel ELDER, d. 1811 TN"
"Jacob ELDER d. 1818" (kit #20638),
also John S. ELDER of TN (kit #85035), and
ANN ELDER BROOKS POE's cousins in Sevier Co TN (#13706, #23663).
