Darrell,

          I was very pleased to find your excellent website. You have very detailed info on the families of John Gilbert m. Sarah Tabor and their daughter Ellen H. Gilbert. I would really appreciate knowing the source of this data-it looks like family bible data. I have much information on their descendants that I would be pleased to share. What is your source for the William Tabor family that shows

Sarah(Sally) and Stephen Tabor to be siblings. I am descended from both of them. You have both of my mother's grandparents listed on your site-John Roe and Terese Ann Taber(Tabor)(you have Cressy as her first (name. I know I'm asking for a lot but I also would like the source forWilliam Tabor's wife's name-I have Nellie with no surname. You have Nancy Fraley.

       I have a lot of data on Bath Co. with some connection to the Warners that I am willing to share. My father is descended from Samuel Warner b. Loudon Co. VA and moved to Bath Co. while it was still part of Montgomery Co.                         John E Donohew
