    3. HI Beverly! There is a good fit for this group in the book "Our Family Tree: Acadian, Colonial, Loyalist, and Mayflower," Volume 2, by Leatha Boudreau Sisson. On pp. 217-218 she has Henry Allen Sisson, born 21 Apr 1844 in Andover, Victoria, New Brunswick, Canada. Married to Elizabeth Jane Reed, children's names Aveline, Edith, Sarah Elizabeth, and Percy Allen. Henry Allen Sisson was a clergyman. There is a nice photograph of Henry and Elizabeth here.   On p. 64, Leatha gives Henry Allen Sisson's descent from Richard Sisson of Rhode Island as: Richard and Mary Sisson James Sisson and Lydia Hathaway (Mayflower ancestry for Lydia) Jonathan Sisson and Mary Wood James Sisson and Elizabeth Howland Jonathan Sisson and Hulda James Sisson and Rebecca Welling Elijah Sisson and Sarah Murphy Henry A. Sisson and Elizabeth Reed   Then, Percy Sisson and Lula Tompkins were the parents of Spurgeon Sisson, who was Leatha's husband.   For some information on James Sisson, husband of Elizabeth Howland, see #198 at: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~dasisson/richard/aqwg04.htm#2645   Leatha's books are so extensive that I haven't put all the descendants into the webpage yet. Please let me know if you'd like for me to send you additional information on these.   Kudos to you for helping your friend with her research!   Carol Sisson Regehr cregehr@yahoo.com --- On Sat, 1/31/09, Beverly Alexander <alexbev@comcast.net> wrote: Hello SISSON Researchers, I am trying to help a friend with her genealogy.
