      Subject Comments: Dwight,

      I noticed Minerva B HASTINGS' name is spelled as Minerva and Minnerva. [2 'n's]
      Still working on her and her family after all these years. Her son Thomas MORRIS
      ended up in KS. I can try to find that data for you if you are still interested.

      Most sincerely,
      Kathy McDowell Cline
