Surnames: WYMAN MENDUM PALIN LAKE Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2AC.2ACI/1332 Message Board Post: I would like to contact descendants of Ned Wyman and his wife Lora Weis Mendum for a study on mitochondrial DNA, inherited through the female side. Lora's maternal ancestry goes back to the 1600's in Massachusetts. Ned is the author of a Wyman genealogy book, and Lora is the author of "History of Athens, Vermont." They had children Robert (d unmarried), Sarah (b 1915, m Edward Lake), and Martha (b 1918, m Robert Palin).
