The days of trust and knowing your neighbors.
I would like to get together with a couple of my relatives to trace the tree back some.

My Dad's dad is from Winooski VT. I still have unknown family up there.
Got pulled over once and the Winooski officer told me to look for my name in the police logs. I guess there is lawbreaker relative with my same name up there.
