Hi. We are the same age. Some days seems very old, some days, ageless. We seem to share the same vocation. Suppose that came from our common ancestor, Anthony Morse?? My line is Anthony, Benjamin, Benjamin, Abel Abel, Ezekiel, John Lane Morse, Moses, John W., Amon A., Isabel. My husband came from Natick, Mass., though his mother was born in Montville, Waldo County, Maine. His father was born in Moscow, Russia, being an immigrant around the time of the Russian Revolution. He [my husband] returned to the area of his mother's roots when he was 16, when we met. We've been married 53 years. His mother was a Hannan, and I've done considerable work on the descendants of John Odell Hannan. I've worked on some self-publications of Vital Records with my cousin, Jacqueline [or Jackie] Watts, and worked on several published genealogies, one with my sister [Lermond], another [Young] with the above-named Jackie and her cousin. It is getting harder to work on the genealogies with the privacy laws. I hate to leave anyone or anything out. Am redoing a work that I did, 'Heal-Heald Genealogical Workbook - Descendants of Peter Heal'[1988]. When I'm done, I may post it online, leaving out the data of the now-living descendants. I suppose that they're all a "Work in Progress". My education is limited to High School. We raised seven children in this area, with my hustand a sawmill laborer, mostly a sawyer, but he ran a sawmill in Lancaster, N.H. in 1974-75, building it up from a broken-down mill to a producing mill. These are small sawmills. He also worked in the local Poultry Plants [now gone from the area, a history in itself] He is very talented at what he does, though like most people our age, now reminisces about the "good old days" and misses working. Congratulations on your works. God bless. Isabel Morse Maresh
