Paternal and Maternal relationships are both confirmed by an autosomal AncestryDNA test match between Bartley McRorie and Susan Bozarth, his 3rd cousin. Their most-recent common ancestors are Harvey Holt and Permelia Leach, the great great grandparents of both Bartley McRorie and Susan Bozarth. Predicted relationship from AncestryDNA: 4th-6th Cousins (35% are 3rd), based on sharing 43 cM across 5 segments.
Ed was my grandmother's father. She (Cora) told me that when she and her siblings were teenagers, they would want to stay up late on a Saturday night playing cards. Ed told them, "You can stay up as late as you wish, but remember you are going to church on Sunday morning anyway!"
