* Currently, I've found a possible connection for Milly Jane Gambrel's parentage. This information is not completely researched, however, and is corroborated only through files on the CLDS Mormon online database. My own family lost personal contact with the Kentucky Gambrels two generations ago, in the 1930's. As of now, this is only a tentative genealogy report on the Milly Jane Gambrel connection, and may prove completely in error.
