  1. I am trying to prove a supplemental for Baylis Earle and John Gowen. My grandmother was Miriam Earle who married William Gowen. They did not accept any of the standard documentation. I found John Gowen's will and it mentions his son William and grandaughter Lettice or Letty, so I have that. I have nothing to prove Miriam is Baylis daughter and lettice's mother- any ideas how I can prove this? I am the Regent at the Ponte Vedra Chapter in Florida. Phyllis Baehrend.
