  11. [S829] Sammi Neason (aka Suncerae Aleta Ann Wilfong), Sure. That would be great. My husband's name is Robert Cornelius Neason Jr. He was born May 1st, 1940. My birthdate is May 4, 1963. I have two brothers, Percy Eugene Earl Wilfong, (bd-Feb10,1959) and Thurl Andrew Clifford Wilfong (bd-December 11,1961). Anything you want to know I will be more than willing to help if I can. Family history is sooooo important to me.
  12. [S829] Sammi Neason (aka Suncerae Aleta Ann Wilfong), First of all...thanks for the great site. I am looking for my roots too. I have a question though. When it says that Ira Washington Wilfong was a "disconnected" Wilfong, what does that mean? Ira and Jettie were my father's parents (Percy). I am trying to find out what the names of his parents were. I also have learned that it may be more probable that he did not come over from Germany, so I am confused. All my life I had heard that he had came, only I was told that it was by himself, then I learned that he may have came with his mother, and the last I heard was that he didn't come over at all, but was born in Pendleton County West Virginia! Any help would be appreciated.
