    • LETTER:
      Dear Mr. Ogle
      Sorry to take so long in answering your letter, but things have
      piled up. As yet, I can not connnect your family to the main branch,
      but it is a pretty good bet that your father is descended form either
      the Sevier Co., Tennessee, or the S. W. Va. Ogles.
      I hope you continue to try and find the family Bible, since if, I
      could find your grandfather's name, and place of living, I am almost
      certain I can connect you.
      I've written to Fred Ogle, as you suggested, twice, but he never
      answered.
      Could you please send me the names, birth dates, etc. of your
      brothers and sisters children, including their marriage partners, if
      any. I'd like to have your branch complete when I do get them
      connected.
      As you find information, just drop it in the mail. Don't need a
      formal letter each time if you don't wish.
