Hi, It was sure good to here from you. My relation come down the same way. From John Bond to James Bond to William Henry Bond, whose first wife, my great-grandmother, was Elva Armina Leavitt, to Charles Elwidor Bond to Arlo Elwidor Bond To me, Delos E. Bond. A friend of mine here in St. Johns is married to a Lee family member here, his name was Brower. He was quite the Genealogist and came in one day and called me cuz. When I ask him what he meant by it, he proceeded to tell me that his great-great grand father was named Osiah Brower (name could be somewhat different) who married a Ruth Calvert. I check in our Family History Center and sure enough found her married to Osiah Brower. This was done, I believe, after she arrived here in the states. My records indicate no dates between John Bond and Ruth Calvert. This is about all I know of this generation. Thanks for your help.
