     Other Comments from Bob
        "My mom's name is listed as "HORNE", but it was her mother who added the 'e' on the end.
        Yeppers, I'm related to the HORN family of Washington County, and I have Ed Porter's
        great new book on the genealogy of the HORN name! My Grandfather HORN and his
        ancestors are there -- Christopher HORN was my 5th Great Grandfather. (Christopher was
        married twice, and between his first wife's first kid, and 2nd wife's last kid, there is a 57-year
        span!!!). I feel fortunate that my ancestors were many in the Washington County area.
         Other surnames being researched - BARNHART, HORN, PEASE (PEAS, PEES,PEESE,
        etc), MOLLENAUER, and of course from my middle name, DICKSON !
