. Gayle D. Scarborough. FamilyTreeMaker: Genealogy Report: Descendants of John T. SWOR (online at www.genealogy.com): this is rather a "rough" pedigree, with some obvious errors, so caveat emptor, but does have genealogy back three generations from Elzada. Says to see WorldConnect for more on Richard.
