Hi Carolyn, I find myself being related to a Kristin Davis, on Gedmatch. were 4.6 generations. I see you have someone talking about daltons up top. I descend from daltons in North Carolina. I am not sure how we are related but I am on Ancestry.com. Ty. Brendy Painter Martinez brendym@msn.com
Through Ancestry.com I got a 99% DNA match to my birth father's sister. That lead to a 100% DNA match through familydna.com to her brother who is my birth father, Dennis Michael Dalton. I have limited myself to only contact with his sister Judy Olson. She and I have not approached him as to who he may have been with to conceive me. She does not think he will remember. We are trying to locate my birth mother now ourselves. Your name came up as 2-4th cousin for me on familydna.com. Your tree matches or mixes one or some people in/with another tree in my matches as well.
Lamoreaux is another name, and there are a few more going back on some trees. One match that was closer or exact was a line of people from Norway but I can't track any relatives on a tree to the U.S. I can get you screen shots of all of these names.
I am just looking for health info as I have nothing from the VT Catholic charities agency that handled my adoption in 1968. Born in Jacksonville, FL. I do not want to intrude on anyone's privacy or lives but I have kids of my own now and owe them and myself a health background. Hence, my not arm's length communication with Judy to pass through info to my birth father and to give me her family's health history as best as she can.
There is a definite genetic link here.
I also think you may be missing some info on your tree that I might have found. I'm assuming someone (your mom or grandmother) was adopted based on something I recall reading online. Coincidentally my birth father's mother or grandmother was adopted.
There must have been a lot of adoptions back in those days. I for one am glad there was. I was lucky to be adopted by great parents, but their health history and genetics are also their own.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience by email if that's easiest for you. Mbenedict4@cox.net
I am close to linking all of the trees together and do think i've narrowed it down to a real candidate. I just want to be more certain before any contact is made.

By any chance, do you have a William Browning, died in the 1930's in Georgia?
I am trying to locate Katey Bice (Thomas?) to fill in some blanks on the tree.
