Bonnie, I am a member of the AMREV-HESSIANS-L@rootsweb.com mailing list. It is a very active list dealing with all aspects of Hessian life. There is a companion website at http://www.americanrevolution.org/hessindex.html It is very extensive, and is the work of many researchers. Don't miss the mailing list archives section. Happy hunting! Rev. Joel B. Keith joelk300@tampabay.rr.com HESSIAN: Peter Abel Bonse [BONZEY] (c1750-1820), Saratoga, Saratoga Co., NY to Oxford, Worcester Co., MA, 1778. Through His death and resurrection, Christ has made the grave a portal; For through its gates we enter into the Presence of the Living God. -----Original Message----- From: Bonnie Weber bonnie.travel@sympatico.ca> Sent: Apr 11, 2006 11:54 AM To: RIGENWEB-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [RIGENWEB] Hessians Does any one know of a site that lists the Hessian soldiers that fought for the British?

About 3 years ago, on the advice of some listers, we included the Pequot Museum on a swing thru New England. Having now been there myself, I second the motion that it is well worth the visit. It is a very well done museum, far above average. It also has good parking, a nice lunchroom and a good giftshop. It is fully handicapped accessible and air conditioned. Robin

I agree with Elaine Decker: the Mashantucket Pequot Museum at Foxwoods is a must visit for those who have any interest in how native Americans lived. The movie is well done and tells the real story of the Massacre at Mystic. If you like this type of exhibit you will not be disappointed.

For anyone who might be interested, the following is up for sale on eBay: Item number: 6621271882 -- 1756 document, Huntington / Ford, Windham Connecticut Manuscript document, Windham, Connecticut, June 10, 1756: "To the Sheriff of the County of Windham his deputy or to Either of the Constables of the town of Windham within s'd County Greeting.

Does any one know of a site that lists the Hessian soldiers that fought for the British? Many of them went over to the American side, and helped the Revolution. Bonnie

Hi Everyone, I am going west for a month, 17th April to 16th of May, to look after my mother. my address will be abaker9@telus.net Since it is only for a month, I am using my sisters address, and my bonnie.travel@sympatico.ca will remain the same. My library is not going with me, so I won't be able to do look ups while I'm away. So please don't send me any request for a month. Thanks, Love to all, Bonnie

I watched it on Sunday night. Some of it was a bit candy-coated but for the most part it was good. If you ever get to the Mashantucket Museum at Foxwoods, see their movie portrayal. That is the real story. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy Anthony" <judya@hal-pc.org> To: <RIGENWEB-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2006 10:23 AM Subject: Re: [RIGENWEB] History Channel Series > Thanks for the heads-up, Robin!

Last night I saw the History Channel's Massacre at Mystic, one of the Ten Days that Unexpectedly Changed America series. It gave a full treatment of Indian trade routes and relationships between the Pequots and the Narragansetts. It will surely repeat and I recommend watching it. It also explains the dispersion of the Indian peoples for many generations, and their subsequent return to their lands, which might help in genealogy. Happy Passover and Easter to everyone, Robin Young

On Monday , 3 April after repairing a large stone at Brayton Cem. in Apponaug, R.I. Another volunteer and I uncovered a horizontal slab stone for Minnie H. Gardner 1873 - 1967 "Mother". This stone was not found for the Sterling book and she is not listed in the GenWeb Cemetery Project. However a new stone was placed nearby by a family member but bears the dates 1872 - 1966. The original stone has been cleared of grass and sod. Dave Matteson
