Hi Bill, Yes I would have liked to had time to talk about the Croswaite family - I have some info from the Brockman line and "my" Singleton line intermarrying. I took early retirement this year but I am so involved with heriditary organizations, I have not had time to give my research top priority. Bill, thank you for the compliment-glad I am almost a Maupin. A very interesting family. I was re-elected to the Jamestowne Society Council (3-yrs term) and will remain as the Society's Companies Committee Chairman for however long on November 11th. Yes, the Society is gearing up for the 2007 Celebration - the Society will be VERY involved. The Society has reserved the Jamestowne Festival Park for a special event for that weekend. If any of the Maupins descendents can prove a Maupin spouse in Jamestowne between 1607-1700, please let me know with a private email to cafarmer@wt.net regarding same. I have the roster and updates of eligible ancestors and will assist anyone interested.
