In the local news section of the Orlando Sentinel this morning it tells of a 100 million bequest to Rollins College from a George D Cornell who died a few years ago. He was an heir of Haviland china and a distant cousin of Thomas Cornell who arrived on the Mayflower. I am a Haviland descendant, but I don't know if mine were connected to the Haviland china. Thought maybe someone doing research on these families might find this interesting. M.E.

In an approved Mayflower line they use a very terse abbreviation for references with no full source citation. Can someone give me the full bibliographic reference for: Harwich VR (1 and 18) Yarmouth VR (1) Rochester VR (1 and 2) There seem to be several of similar names and varying dates. I put in parentheses the Volume (?) numbers referenced. Thanks!

I am doing research on a Mayflower line and would like to refer to the early volumes of MD (1-17). Gloucester County HS doesn't have them, nor a handful of other places I've tried. Does anyone know a Southern NJ library that has them? Thanks!

Hi Dianna: I was talking with Scott Mc Kay lately and he told me that you had postponed your surgery. I hope that means that your condition has improved. I am in the middle of 6 weeks of physical therapy for a knee condition. The orthopedist recently x-ray both of my knees and diagnosed gonarthrosis in both knees. This means that there is little or no cartilage left in either knee. He said that bilateral knee replacement is in my future - but placed no timeline on it! He also said that he believed that 6 weeks of PT would relieve my pain. He was right re: my right knee that I consulted him about. It no longer hurts - but every muscle in my left leg ached the morning after my first visit to therapy. Later other muscles in my right leg also hurt - and after 1 session out of the water (riding a recumbent bicycle for 5 minutes) my neck and shoulders hurt, too. So I am now back in aquatic therapy again (1 hour of aerobics twice a week). I am bicycle for 10 minutes pain free in the water. In your reply to Polly Hall-Burley I noticed that you state you are a Soule descendant, too. Are you going to the Soule Kindred in America reunion in Plymouth, MA in September? If so, I'll get to meet you then. I am planning to drive there from my home in NC. I'll take 2 1/2 days to make the trip - and I expect that the scenery will be beautiful. I was there 6 years ago with my husband. It will be different without him but I am rooming with Sue Eisdorfer (a Soule cousin that I met two years ago). She is the hostess for the event and I will help her with welcoming, registration, and hospitality. She is a Mayflower Society officer from NJ. We will meet the day after the Mayflower Society meetings conclude. I hope to meet some FCS members if they attend. Scott is unaware if any of the FCS member so plan to attend. I am pleased that you are persevering in getting the 6th and 7th Cooke generations sorted out. I may peruse Mayflower membership in the near future. I believe that I can gather all the documents that I will need to apply. A Soule cousin has most all that are needed and I have the others that I believe I will need to get in on that line. Kindest regards, Judy Hughes 12th generation Soule descendant 11th generation Francis Cook descendant, too; as well as descendant of Alden, Allerton, Cooke, Hopkins,Mullins, Samson, Standish, and Warren
