William Anodell Hewell and Betsey Pine are parents to all the above I listed .... so, Melvin is obviously Melvyn ! and where jesse appears from I have no idea ! another one to add. I will need to read through the thread properly to fathom out if the others are connected .. I must be getting weary in my middle age !! ...
