This is good. I too had reached a dead end on William and Lucinda. I am knid of new to this (2yrs). This will help a lot.

I am finding William and Lucinda have so many descendants. Which of their children are you descended from? You can email me at turningofgenerations at cox dot net. I would love to hear from you!
