      Classification: Surnames: McCuistion

      I have a copy of Leona Bean McQuiston's "The McCuiston, McCuiston, and McQuesten Families, 1620-1937". Also have a copy of The Mccuistion Family News' "The new 1998 Edition of The Nccuistion: Ancestors, Desacendants, and Missing Links".

      However! I'm not able to find any link for my grandmother: Opal Irene McCuistion. Her father was Aussie Lee McCuistion and he married Effie Jane Richey. They had eight children:
