Please note, I have a new e-mail (long story). Thank you for you info on Benjamin Eades. I have been doing Gen. for about the same time, on and off, about 25/30 years. My husbands gg-grandfather was Elisha Eades 1786/1868. My husbands grandmother said that he was related to Benjamin Edes a printer in Mass and where the Boston Tea party was held. I don't know the relation, could have even been an uncle. Also that he was related someway to James B. Eads, of the Mississipi River fame. I have seen Elisha's name spelled all three ways. If you come across anything please e-mail me.
I'm retired now and back into it.
Thanks again. Eileen
