Clare, since you are inviting Deborah Elizabeth Gordon Bowen it is only fitting that her spouse Emery Bowen should also be invited. I know, Clare, that we are cousins, but it still seems a little strange to hear you talk about "my" great Grandfather as your great grandfather. I am certain that we share that distinction with a lot of cousins. If only they would find their way to this list.

I would ask him what town he was born in (supposed to be 9 mar 1760 in Rehoboth, MA) and when and where he and Polly Holmes were married. I would also like some proof of who his father and mother were. Norm On 11/4/2010 1:09 PM, Carol Head wrote: > Those of us in the USA will soon be celebrating Thanksgiving.

Do you think it would be rude to ask them to bring copies of any birth and marriage records they might have? :) On 11/21/10 7:44 AM, "Elizabeth M Sloane" <[email protected]> wrote: >Clare, since you are inviting Deborah Elizabeth Gordon Bowen it is only >fitting that her spouse Emery Bowen should also be invited.

you talk about "my" great Grandfather as your great grandfather. Nothing like being possessive about one's relatives! -winking!
