Made me feel good to know he's in my lineage; it must have taken a lot of courage to speak out against the madness. <br /><br />The old graveyard in Haverhill also has the crumbling gravestone of another of my ancestors, Peter Pattee, who was a ferryman and well-known Haverill citizen.

Proud to have him as my 9th great grandfather.<br /><br />We watch Mysteries at the Museum and love all the history it teaches.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
