    1. Thanksgiving Started When?
    2. I love this list. It is amazing how one statement of what we think is fact can bring out so many additional pieces of history. We, from childhood, have been taught "the facts" about things as other people want them to be. The beauty of genealogy which translates, if you having fun doing it, to history of your family and where it lived is learning how things really were. I must admit that being a native Virginian I do chuckle about 1619 vs 1621--especially since our daughter is engaged to a young lad from Mass. But..at the end of the day what truly counts is how we enjoy each our other, our family and our church. History is History--no more no less. As usual this Virginian will spend part of Christmas in Va with family, as we have done for 42 years since the Air Force brought me to Florida. Genealogy is a Blast!! Thanks and Happy Holidays Doug
