Hi, was looking through the post and someone was asking for information on Jack Sully. There is a book out titled West River, dated from l850-l9l0. It has only been published within 7 years and the man that wrote it was named John Simpson, he practiced law in West River for 45 years, if this is the right Jack Sully there is a lot of information on the life and history of Jack and only mentions Mrs Sully, and he had a son by the name of Claude,also has some pictures of Jack. If I can help any more or if it is the right Jack you can let me know and I can give you some more history if you can't find the book. Marilyn([e-mail]

Dawn: The other Jack Sully is the one you sent me that link to. is not the JJack Sully that married hapan, although both the other Jack Sully and the husband of Hapan both had a son named Samuel.
