" .... I'm afraid I cannot help you with regard to descendents of Thomas
Mills and Elizabeth Harrold. I checked through your Focus list, and found many that I recognized and/or are ancestors of mine. I've enclosed copies of those sheets which I hope will be of some help to you. As you can see, I am missing quite a bit of information (such as location of b. & d. of Elizabeth Harrold, location of b. of Rachel Harrold (Her sister) plus d., info on Manlove Wheeler, info on Lydia Hiatt, (Dau. of George and Martha Wakefield Hiatt), etc. Any help you could give me would be very much appreciated!My full name is Charity Mills Gilbert Monroe, but the Charity Mills I was
named after is one that was married to Perry T. Macy. I'm the fifth Charity in nine generations (the earliest known one to be Charity Grubb, who married
Richard Beeson). I'm connected through several lines of Mills, and also two
lines of Mendenhalls. For years I've worked on a Mendenhall database.... If
you need Mendenhall information, please let me know. I love working on
Genealogy, but I'm afraid it's taken a back seat for the last few years since
I've gone back to work and am involved with getting my grandmother's memoirs
pubished. Then I intend to work on my husband's grandfather's memoirs (he is
just turned 90) before going to my grandfather's. I must admit, with the
computer things are quite a bit easier, but even so, it will probably be years before I get back to serious work on my family tree.
Please let me know if I can help in any way. ..." etc. Charity MonroeFrom MILLS FAMILY HISTORY by Paul MILLS
