We have common ancestors from Micah Jepson back.
My line is Micah Jepson>Samuel Jepson and Bertha Keith>Thomas Jepson and Betsy Houghton>Amanda Lovina Jepson and Amos Aldrich White >Stella White and Martin Nelson Johnson, etc.
Samuel Jepson also migrated to Bennington Co, VT.His son Thomas was born in Pownal, VT.
There is a small cemetery on White Oak Road in south Pownal called the Reuben Jepson Farm Yard cemetery.A group of cousins and I "rediscovered" it in October, 1999.The Vermont Old Cemeteries Assn. is trying to get permission from the present owner to clean it up and restore the stones.We found no stones for any Jepsons, which makes me think there might be some missing or covered up.You can find out more about this cemetery and Pownal, Vt in the Pownal Historical Society site: http://www.sover.net/~kwheld/PHShttp://www.sover.net/~kwheld/PHS.
