Gramma's AT

Here, for your comments (and hopefully corrections), are numbers 1-100
in the ancestor table of Mrs. W. G. Macy of Normal, Illinois (nee Ella
J. Porter of Merrimac, Massachusetts), my maternal grandmother. I'll
be posting her AT in chunks of 100 ancestors, as I get them ready. I
will leave unknown ancestors in the numbering systems, so some
segments of 100 may have large empty gaps. I will also fully repeat
any duplicated ancestors (of which there are many, particularly in the
Newbury, Mass., families of Noyes, Merrill, and Knight). I've noted
her matrineal ancestors (who happen also to be my own matrilineal
line).

Any comments and corrections welcome ...
