Michael,
My name is Greg Dean and I saw your post on Ancestry.com ("Almys from France"). My grandpa's name was Franklin Almy Dean (9/20/1913) and he was born to a Hick Dean and a Mary Almy in Hopkinsville, KY. I believe Mary was the daughter of your great grand father, Andrew A. Almy. I hope what I have said is true and we are able to share info; anything you could tell me about Hick, Mary, or the Almy's would be appreciated. I am attaching photos of my Gramps and Great gramps as a first step of sharing info.
