Sorry this has taken me so long. I am a writer by profession and have been buried in a book the last many months and it just came out -- this week. So now I can play with Family History. Have you gone to Scotland, yet?
The way I figure our side of the family is that Kenneth Swinton (1915-1999) married Venice Cheever (1921-1978) in 1953. He adopted my husband who was from Venice's first marriage in 1956. Hence the Swinton last name. They were divorced in 1963. Had one daughter Pamela. Two adopted sons: Brian and Jeffrey (My husband). So it goes:
Kenneth Swinton + Venice Cheever
Jeffrey (Miller) Swinton+ Heidi Sorensen (1972)
Cameron Swinton (1976) + Kristen Ekins 1999
Daniel Swinton (1978) + Julia Leaman 2001
Jonathan Swinton (1981)
Ian Swinton (1983) -- moving to Melbourne, Australia in July 2002.
Do you have a marriage date for Kenneth and Irene Cone? I am guessing that Kenneth is a brother of Linton J. who is the father of Kenneth -- our stepfather. I am a Mormon and am very familiar with the Family History Library here and could help you. Let me know. Heidi
