The daughter of James Atkiss named Ada was my great grandmother. She married Charles W Walker and their daughter Grace was my grandmother. Grace married James W Baxter and had seven children.  Any questions?  I am excited to begin my search

Andrew......in reading James' will what made for interesting reading?  I find the history of NYC fascinating. Was James born in the United States?  He apparently is my great great grandfather.
