Thank you for "digging" into my family's roots. :)
And thank you for the extra photos of relations also. Much appreciated.

Actually, yes I am related. I set out to trace my mitochondrial DNA - the female genealogical trip, as Y chromosome is the male - and she is the farthest back I can go. Her mother, born in England, has no last name that I can discover.

David, thanks so much for getting that photo. It is such an old one - lucky it has survived at all, though sad that it is broken. Thanks again!

re: Memorial# 86028535

Hi David,

Thanks for the birth date! I've added it to Eben's memorial. I noticed his wife and daughter are buried at Granary Burial Ground in Boston. I used to live a block from there for many years and spent a lot of time in those burying grounds downtown.

Take care,
John G.

Hi David,

Unfortunately, I can't help you with this question. Find a grave lets you link a child to a parent, but not a parent to a child. This means the person who put up Joel P. T. Smith's page (the son) linked him to my page for John Smith (the father). I do not have any further information about John Smith beyond the inscription on the gravestone.

Best wishes,
Ruth
