Thanks for such an excellent listing of people of Bandara and surrounding
areas. My ancestors were part of that community about 1860 and to present
day. Many of the names are on your list. McDonald, Patterson, Menges, Keese,
Waits, Taylor, naming a few. I will be happy to share my list with you
as I learn to transfer it to you. Thanks again. Don't hesitate to contact
me. Thanks again, and again. Ted
