Robinson(5/1890-9/1981) of Kent/Lake Carmel. She was married to Norman I. Booth. It seems we're related to just about all the original family's in Putnam/Southern Dutchess. Some are buried in Raymond Hill Cemetery in Carmel and some are buried in the Parker Farm Cemetery in Kent (now on private property). We are part Indian, according to my grandmother. She showed me a picture of the man in a dark suit, tall hat, and braids. My sister and I were young and we can't remember his name or how we're related and have had no luck in tracing this heritage. The last two town historians also said we had Indian blood, but couldn't verify the lineage. If you look at an antique map of the Kent NY from 1868 (you can find and view this on the Internet), you will see in the upper region all of your family's homesteads. (This area was dammed and is now known as Seven Hills Lake.) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
