Is your family’s historic site as cool as this?

Every year, we participate in the Alden Historic Site’s Annual Halloween Haunted House. When I dove deep into my family tree back in 2020, I found John and Priscilla (Mullins) Alden who lived right nearby in Duxbury. As it turned out, their children’s house is still standing and is a National Historic Landmark.

We’re very excited for next year’s Revolutionary semiquincentennial. It will not disappoint! #1776

Do you like Piña Coladas and getting caught in the…notorious rum trade in 18th century colonial New England? Peter Bowen of Salisbury, New Hampshire made himself quite a name in a small New England village before transporting his family to Corinth, Vermont.

“What’s wrong with being thankful?”On the surface, it seems like an innocent question. Placed within its context – asked on a lineage page for a historic New England couple on the day prior to Thanksgiving and accompanied by a diatribe on their wondrous works, it was less so. The inquirer pr...
