Yes it was great to talk and I look forward to meeting you at some point. We are all family and though probably impossible to meet everyone, it would be great to meet as many as we can. I really wasn't sure who all they were in the pictures, but I remembered someone telling me that it was a Tarpley reunion in Oklahoma. You were talking about trying to find Lee, I may have accidentally ran across a clue on him. During my breaks here at work I sometimes play around with different sites. I had been on rootsweb at another time, but I may not have done this particular search. Anyway, if you go onto rootsweb, there is a page titled Tarpley-Harper. I looked at Hannah Tigert on there and it lists Lee living with Hannah and Thomas Jasper in the 1900 and 1910 census but in the 1900 out beside his name it says-Can't read or write, paralysed. It doesn't however mention that on the 1910. I thought that to be interesting. Curious if disease or accident or birth defect caused him to be paralysed, probably no way of knowing.

I think the tree on Ancestry is just the Tarpley tree. Her name is Rosemary Helgeson. I believe she sent you an email through ancestry. If you don't find anything let me know and I will get her to explain further what we need to do.

Thanks for getting back to me.
Take care
Jim
