Hello Cheryl,
You don't know me, but I am a descendent of the Ariail family from Connecticut. Anna Augusta Chatfield is also a descendent from that same family.
In your work you have Myrtle Woods as being married to a Mr. Blue.
She was married to Thomas A. Ballew and had a very large family.
Ancestry.com has some problems and I cannot access their reports to get much information.
Do you have anything other than what you have posted under family trees on ancestry.com?
Probably a cousin of yours
James Patterson
son of Lillie Ariail
