    3. I did not expect the project to be helpful to our genealogy quest but rather to provide a greater understanding of the journey itself and, therefore, what the party may have experienced and endured. One would have to be of strong character to make the journey. I wonder how the journey itself would shape one¹s resilience and determination in Connecticut. I will contact Jason.
