The Pilgrims landed in Plymouth MA in 1620, according to a friend who knows history off the top of his head and is related through the grapevine to an original settler of the states of MA and CT.
Not everyone with such connections takes the time to look it up. I hope to pursue more historical family tree and by association area and state roots with more time in historical societies, reviewing geneology and reconnecting with family and friends near and far.
Once back in the 1980s, I travelled out West to see tons of family on my Dad's side out in New Mexico.
