Note	John Stolp was an electrician who became an amateur genealogist before the "genealogy craze" began. He investigated his McCabe family roots in the 1950s and 1960s and hired a genealogist in Canada to search records in Ontario for his roots. The genealogy report produced by the Canadian genealogist still serves a useful document for present McCabe researchers. Thanks to a grand gentleman.
