~Tombstone of Thomas Ernest and
Annetta Mae "Nettie" Mattingly Abell~
"Home is where one starts from. As we grow older the world becomes stranger, the pattern more complicated of dead and living. Not the intense moment, isolated, with no before and after, but a lifetime burning in every moment. And not the lifetime of one man only, but of old stones that cannot be deciphered." ----- T. S. Eliot, 1888-1965 "Four Quartets, East Coker" (1940)

Hi, Lisa,
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that you are doing the genealogy for your kids. I am curious: Are they related to David Logsdon who wrote that wonderful Civil War series of books "Eyewitnesses of the Battle of _____"? His research led to a marvelous discovery about my g-g-grandfather Nathan Wilcox & I wrote him about it. He was very sweet & gave me a bit more information. Just curious.

Hi Jean...I do not know of the David Logsdon you mention although I have learned never to say that I (or my children) are "unrelated" because I've learned that somewhere in time they probably are. I once said to someone that I doubted we were related and about two years later I had to eat those words!
