Events in My Family Tree: January 4

I noticed that quite a few Gaunts were in today's list.  Maybe January is a good month for Gaunts.  This is the third day I've been able to find a photo of at least one of the family members appearing in the day's events.

Births

Lydia Mack, daughter of Alexander Mack and Elizabeth Neis, was born January 4, 1761, probably in Germantown, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.  She is my 5th great-grandaunt through the Macks.

Russell Simcox, son of Warren Simcox and Elva Rodenbaugh, was born January 4, 1899.  He was married to Eleanor Malinda Eckman, the sister of my grandaunt Bertha Poinsett Eckman and granduncle Edwin Bunting Eckman.

William Ledger Allen, son of Clarence Allen and Agnes Viola Ledger, was born January 4, 1923 in New Jersey.  He is my 5th cousin on my Gauntt line through the Allens.
