Rachel is my 4th great-grandmother.

Rachel Forney is 7 Degrees from Sherry Miller. Rachel Shriver → Lydia Forney (her daughter) → Jacob Welsh (her husband) → Anna Welsh (his daughter) → Elizabeth Gilbert (her daughter) → Edgar Browning (her son) → Joseph Browning (his son) → Sherry Browning (his daughter).

I would like to give an interested party a copy of the Forney family crest that belonged to a late friend. It hasn't been colored but there are instructions as to the crest and coloring. I'll be happy to mail it. thanks, Quentin Smith
