Which Reminds Me

When I was doing my genealogy, I noticed that someone named Candice Peebles had already covered a lot of the same ground so that makes it a little bit easier. The Peebles are only tangentially related because they have the Burreys. We are descended from Rhoda Burrey whereas they are descended from a different Burrey, not to be confused with Burrows. They might be also descendants of Mary Ann Carr. Carr and her husband, Jacob Burrey, had 11 children, several of whom lived to adulthood, so 200 years later that could be quite a few people to track down, although I don't recommend contacting people on genealogy charts for reasons other than research.
