I AM LOOKING FOR THE FAMILY TREE TO THE BANDLEADER, JOHN PHILIP SOUSA. I HAVE BASIC INFORMATION ON HIM. WHAT I NEED IS THE NAMES OF HIS BROTHERS AND ESPECIALLY THEIR WIVES NAMES AND MAIDEN NAMES. MY GRANDFATHER, WHO HAS PASSED AWAY, TOLD US THAT JOHN P. SOUSA WAS HIS 1ST COUSIN. HE EVEN VISITED HIM FOR THE LAST TIME IN THE 1930'S WITH MY STEP GRANDMOTHER. MY GRANDFATHERS NAME WAS, ELMER MUSSELMAN. WE HAVE TRACED THE MUSSELMAN FAMILY BACK TO 1470. THERE IS KNOW SOUSA. MY THOUGHT IS THAT ONE OF MY GREAT GRANDMOTHER'S (HER NAME WAS MARIA h. SNYDER) SISTERS' MAY HAVE MARRIED ONE OF JOHN PHILIPS BROTHES. THE TIME PERIOD IS BETWEEN 1854-1930. YOU SEE THEIR CHILDREN WOULD BE MY GRANDFATHERS 1ST COUSIN.

I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR ALONG TIME, PLEASE HELP!

VERY SERIOUS ABOUT THIS,
DONNA M. EYE
