Well, well, well. As my Dad used to say, now I'm cookin' with gas. I never understood why he said that, since we had an electric stove, and a coal and wood one before that. We never had a gas stove for cooking.

Hopefully, now that you've all helped me on this I just might be able to ask for help in learning the pronounciation of the family's original surname. I intend to post that one tomorrow.

Thanks again.
