Hurd-3278 and Hurd-22 appear to represent the same person because: I am sorry but I have been adding sources and children to both Hrud-3278 and Hurd-22. Phebe is a direct relative of my husband; his mother was a Coursen. He inherited a interesting letter from Whitfield Hurd and I have been happily entering the Coursens and Hurds in this letter. I hope we can merge.. Lonski-12
